The lunar surface is made up of rocks and craters of all shapes.
Most lunar craters are circular. It takes a very unusual shallow (or grazing) impact to make a crater that is not circular.
There are not only maps of the lunar craters, there are lunar globes that depict the Moon just as it is. Even better; there is Google Moon! www.google.com/moon
The technological term for these foreign "Shapes" are "Lunar Craters" Lunar Crates are created or developed by the moons lack of 3 mandatory characteristics for a planet to have life: - Atmosphere - Water/Life preserving liquid - And tectonic plates This leads to erosion that ranges from being Major or Minor in certain situations. This means little bits of the moon erode. Lunar Craters are fully eroded after 25,000 or so years. Hope this helped! - Kanaan Yarahuan
They last forever.

Most lunar craters are impact craters caused by incoming meteors and asteroids. Since our moon has no atmosphere there can be no glaciers or erosion.

Meteorite impacts.
it is a result of an asteroid impact
noooooooooooooooooooo!
Craters are formed when asteroids and comets collide with the lunar surface.
