Most of the craters have been buried by lava flows from the many volcanoes on Venus.

What is the description of venus?
Venus has craters on it's surface!
Is venus' surface smooth?
It is not smooth it has craters

the surface feature of Venus are craters, meteorites and mostly acid water
Are there any craters on Venus'?
yes meteors hit Venus surface the craters that were once on the surface disappear
Is Venus cratered?
Venus has few craters, because it is relatively young. Most of the surface is smooth volcanic plains.
What evidence leads astronomers to believe that Venus is geologically young?
The numbers of craters they have counted on the surface.
Does eris have volcanoes?
While we can barely detect that Eris exists (much less see if it has any craters) I would be surprised if it does not have any craters. So far, every body with a solid surface has craters. Except Venus, and I think that the reason we haven't seen craters on Venus is the fact that the atmosphere of Venus is an impenetrable haze.
Does the planet Venus' have craters?
Venus has about 1,000 young craters, the biggest of which is Crater Mead, about 170 mile across. Oddly, there is no evidence on Venus of old craters like we see on the moon, Earth, and Mars. Somehow these old craters were smoothed over on Venus . . . by lava flow?? By high winds??
Does venus atmosphere protect it from craters?
No. Nothing protects a planet from craters. The atmosphere of Venus does give it some production, though, from asteroid and comet impacts, which form craters. Smaller objects will burn up or disintegrate before they can reach the surface. It does little to protect from large impacts, though.
Does Venus's have moons or craters?
Venus has no moon. It may have some craters, but it's thick atmosphere helps to burn meteors up before they hit the surface. Volcanic activity has also helped to cover up evidence of any impacts.
Why do scientists believe that venus is relatively young?
I think Venus is about as old as the rest of the solar system.You may mean the surface of Venus.The surface is relatively young.Scientists believe thisbecause there are relatively few impact craters.
What land forms are on Venus?
Venus has many volcanoes and craters.
