Anyone can see craters on the moon. All you have to do is look at it when it's in the sky. There are billions of craters on the lunar surface with more being added almost daily. There will always be craters on the moon because there is no atmosphere to erode them. The lunar craters only form of erosion is from solar bombardment and being hit by another object.

What created the large lunar craters you see on the moon?
Mostly Meteors
Where is Craters of the Moon monument?
The Craters of the Moon monument is in central Idaho.
What are craters on the moon and Mars?
the craters on the moon and mars are from asteroids bumping into it.
What might be responsible for most of the craters on earth's moon?
The vast majority of lunar craters are caused by meteor impacts.
Who used a telescope to discover craters on the moon?
Many of the larger craters on the moon can be seen from earth without a telescope, so nobody discovered craters on the moon with a telescope.
Why are there two craters on the far side of the moon?
There can be craters anywhere on the moon, not just the side we see
What created the large craters you we see on the moon?
The theory is that these are impact craters of meteors.
Why can we see the craters of the moon so clearly from earth?
Because the craters of the moon are very large and preety. \\\\\\\\ p;l
Why can you still see craters on the moon even though they were formed by ancient meteor collisions?
Unlike on Earth, the moon has no water, no air, and no plate tectonics; it is geologically dead. As a result, there is nothing to wear away or destroy the craters.
Why can you still see craters on the moon that were formed millions of years ago?
Because the moon has no weather, wind, rain, etc, to wear the craters down. Things existing in a frozen vacuum where nothing ever happens tend to stay the same way for millions of years without changing - like the craters on the moon.
What are the geological features that you can see on the moon are called what?
Craters.
Why do you see impact craters on mercury and the moon but not so much on earth?
Because there are not as many impact craters that you can see very well on Earth like there are on the Moon and Mercury.
How many eruptions did Craters of the Moon have?
Craters on the moon are not volcanic, they are impact craters.
Why can we still see craters on the moon even though they were formed by ancient collisions with meteors?
Because there is no atmosphere, no water and no wind on the Moon so change is extremely slow.
What cause the Moon's craters?
The craters on the Moon are considered to be impact craters, caused by meteoroids striking the Moon.
Why is it easier to see craters on the moon?
Because they create shadows
Why do you see many impact craters on the moon but not earth?
The Earth has weather patterns that have eroded most of the craters on Earth. The moon has no weather, therefore no erosion.
