Why does the moon have little water?
Because there is no active volcanic activity on the moon. For a planet or moon to develop water, it needs to have active volcanic activity. The steam from erupting volcanoes creates an atmosphere and condensation which, over millions of years, creates oceans. We know the moon had active volcanic activity millions of years ago, because there are pockets of ice on the moon. However, volcanic activity on the moon is now non-existent, therefore, no more water can be produced from volcanic steam.
Does the moon have volcanoes but no volcanic activity?
Yes, the moon does have volcanoes, but they are practically dead. They have no volcanic activity.
Does Ceres have volcanic activity?

What happens if the moon stops going around the earth?
Tidal and tectonic activity will cease. Volcanic activity will increase and the earth will eventually look like Venus.
What is the definition of volcanic activity?

Why have old craters on the moon not been erased as similar craters on earth have been?
The moon has no atmosphere, liquid water, or plate tectonics and little volcanic activity or bury, erode, and southwester destroy impact craters.
Does Ceres have volcanic activity?
