craters hope i helped
the bumps on the moon are called craters which has happened by comets and other objects.
Its called a crater, Impact craters are the remains of collisions between an asteroid, comet, or meteorite and the Moon. These objects hit the Moon at a wide range of speeds, but average about 12 miles per second
impact basins or is it magnetic fields? yea its impact basins!!
Objects fall faster to the earth, then compared to the moon, it is due to the different power of gravity on the the earth and moon.
The moon is said to be at its Perigee when at its closest point to the Earth, Apogee when at its furthest point. Perigee and Apogee can also be used for other objects when orbiting about the Earth. If we talk about objects orbiting the sun (such as the planets) we use the term Perihelion and Aphelion (the helion part coming from the latin name of helios for the sun). If the perigee coincides with a full moon, we get a `supermoon`. The moon is at its largest circumference as it is at its closest, and is also full.
A Impact Basin
It forms a crater or dint.

The moon has plenty of craters, many of which can be seen from Earth, with a good telescope or binoculars. The craters are there, because the moon has no atmosphere for the objects to burn up in, so all of them hit the moon.
This study is called astronomy.

An asteroid had hit Earth and knocked of a chunk that is now called the moon.

Generally, although objects that orbit dwarf planets and smaller objects such as asteroids can also be called moons.
