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.
What percentage of the moon is covered in maria?
The dark areas on the Moon's surface are called maria. The maria cover only 15 percent of the lunar surface. The Maria are lower in altitude than the Highlands, but there is no water on the Moon so they are not literally seas. Mare Imbrium or the Sea of Showers is the largest mare at 700 miles in diameter.
