The moon has no water or atmosphere to cause weathering and very little geologic activity. This means that there is very little to disturb features on the moon's surface.

What fills up craters?

That depends on where the crater is, and how it formed. Meteor craters on the Moon or Mars? Nothing generally fills them up, and lunar craters are still visible after many hundreds of thousands of years. On Earth? A meteor crater will, eventually, fill with dust or dirt and water. A good number of meteor craters are visible as circular lakes. The Meteor Crater in Barringer, AZ is still empty after 50,000 years. Volcanic craters sometimes fill with lava, or with dirt and water.

What landforms do the moon and earth have in common?

Both the Moon and Earth have impact craters, mountains, and valleys. These landforms were created through similar geological processes, such as meteor impacts and tectonic activity. Additionally, both celestial bodies have flat plains formed by ancient lava flows.


Where have meteorites crashed and left craters?

There are hundreds. Probably the most obvious is the Barringer Meteor Crater in Winslow, Arizona, USA, but there are craters all over. Many of them are so old and so enormous that we didn't realize they were ancient craters until we saw satellite photos of them.


What are some of the causes of craters?

Meteor impact, volcanism, bombs.
