Why are more craters present on the moons surface than on earths?
The moon has more visible craters on its surface compared to Earth because it lacks an atmosphere to protect it from impacting objects. Earth's atmosphere burns up most small asteroids and meteoroids before they can reach the surface, resulting in fewer visible impact craters. Additionally, the moon's lack of geological activity means that its craters remain preserved over time.
What was the magnitude of the most recent earthquake?
The magnitude of the most recent earthquake varies depending on location and time. I recommend checking a reliable source such as the US Geological Survey (USGS) for up-to-date information on recent earthquakes.
What is the most recent ice age ended about?
The most recent ice age ended about 11,700 years ago, leading to the current interglacial period known as the Holocene epoch.
What is the name of the most recent major earthquake in the world?
japans earthquake. it led to the tsunami. so it is the most severe,and most major earthquake.
Why do you see impact craters on mercury and the moon but not so much on earth?
Earth has a thicker atmosphere that burns up most of the smaller meteoroids before they can reach the surface, whereas Mercury and the Moon have very thin or no atmosphere to protect them. As a result, these bodies are more vulnerable to impacts from space debris, creating visible craters. Additionally, Earth's active geological processes, such as erosion and tectonic activity, continually reshape the surface and can erase evidence of impact craters over time.
Which stargate series is the most recent?
the order is sg1, sga, sgu. sg1 and sga overlap during s8/s1.
What unique features are found on Earth's moon?
The most recent unique feature found on the moon was methane rich pockets of ice formed in the deep craters on the moon
Do craters cover most of the Earth?
No. Earth has relatively few impacts craters.
What are very large craters most likely the result of?
Most craters are caused by meteorites crashing to the planet. However, some volcanoes when formed, look like craters.
Can you see craters on the moon from earth?
No. Most of the impact craters that have formed on Earth have been destroyed and buried by geologic processes, processes that the moon lacks. While some recent impact craters on Earth remain visible on the surface, they are too small to be seen from the moon.
Are most lunar craters that are formed by erosion caused by glaciers?
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.
What might be responsible for most of the craters on earth's moon?
Most of the craters on Earth's moon are believed to have been caused by impacts from meteoroids, asteroids, and comets over millions of years. These impactors have struck the moon's surface and created the circular depressions we see as craters.
Are the craters on Mercury called ray craters?
Not necessarily. A ray crater is in impact crater that has tapering lines of light-volored material extening outward. Ray craters can found on Mercury and other objects such as the moon, but most of these craters are not ray craters.
What shapes are most craters?
Most lunar craters are circular. It takes a very unusual shallow (or grazing) impact to make a crater that is not circular.
What are the craters names on mercury?
Some of the notable craters on Mercury include names like Shakespeare, Beethoven, Debussy, and Caloris. Caloris Basin is one of the largest and most well-known craters on Mercury.
Does Venus have the most volcanos or craters out of the planets?
Mercury has the most craters of all the planets.
What inner planet has a surface with craters?
All four inner planets have craters. Mercury is the most heavily cratered.
