What are moonquakes?
Moonquakes are just earthquakes that occur on the moon.Moonquakes do happen but they happen a lot less frequently and they have magnitudes that are a lot less smaller than earthquakes. They happen at great depth, about half way between the surface and the center of the moon. Moonquakes can last for up to one hour which is a much longer time than earthquakes.
What is an earthquake called on the Moon?
Moonquakes ("earthquakes" on the moon) do occur, but they happen less frequently and have smaller magnitudes than earthquakes on the Earth. It appears they are related to the tidal stresses associated with the varying distance between the Earth and Moon. They also occur at great depth, about halfway between the surface and the center of the moon.

How severe are moon quakes compared to earths quakes?
