Where can the bit of moon found when the moon is not quiet round?
It's still in the same place it's always been. The earth simply casts a shadow over the surface of the moon as it rotates around the Earth.
What 3 constellation are all explained by the same greek myth?
Hydra, Crater, Corvus
How do crater counts tell us the age of a surface?
Because impacts have occurred at a fairly steady pace through most of its history, at least since a period known as the Late Heavy Bombardment, older regions of a planetary surface will have more craters.
Is the moon the same all over the earth?
It is the same moon so yes it is.
Why can we always see the same side of the moon from earth?
The moon rotates and revolves at the same rate
Crater on the moon is the same distance across as the journey from Walt Whitman's 1884 house?
It was the Copernicus Crater.
If you lived in the crater Copernicus on the side of the moon facing the earth how often would the sun rise?
Once every 29 1/2 days. Same on most other parts of the Moon.
Why do some moons lack craters?
Some moons lack craters for some of the same reasons the Earth has very few craters: The land keeps changing or there is some force to smooth them out. If a planet or moon has an atmosphere then there is erosion. If the land keeps changing then the crater will disappear. Throw a stone on the edge of a sandy beach where the waves are striking. You may see a "crater" created by your stone, but after a few waves the crater will be gone. Now, toss a stone into the dry sand to make a "crater". With the wind blowing the sand will fill in your crater over time. You can toss a rock on to an icy lake to make a crater. Where will that crater be when the spring thaw comes? The more dynamic - or changing - a moon is, the shorter time you will see craters on their surface. This is really helpful to astronomers because it helps them find out how old some moons are. If a moon has very few craters, its surface must be much younger than a moon with many craters.
What are lunar rays are the same age as?
The ray systems correspond to the craters produced at the same time. Some ray systems on the Moon are from older craters that have since been overlaid by subsequent impacts in the same area.
It is about Pokemon crater why cant you get in and play Pokemon crater?
They shut Pokemon crater down. It took me along time to realize what happen and I know a website that is almost the same to Pokemon crater it's called www.pokemonbattlearena.net.
Why are craters harder to see on earth then on the moon?
Air and water will gradually transform the craters, making them hard to see. The craters will be "washed away". On the Moon, it takes much longer for a crater to become "washed away".Air and water will gradually transform the craters, making them hard to see. The craters will be "washed away".

What is the definition of a crater on an airfield?
A crater is the same anywhere, a conical hole in the ground as is caused by a shell or mine exploding.
How can you compare earth's craters to moons craters?
-- Water on earth may fill them in, but there's no water on the moon to do the same there. -- Craters on the earth get worn down by rain, snow, wind, hail, etc. But there's no rain, snow, wind, hail, or etc. on the moon to do the same to them there, so those there don't get worn down. -- The lack of atmosphere on the moon allows larger meteorite strikes, whereas most meteorites burn up completely or almost completely when passing through earth's atmosphere.
Where is the sea of tranquilty?
The Sea of Tranquility is not a sea at all, but a large, flat plain on the Moon. It lies on the Eastern face near to the Lunar Equator, and is about the same size as Bangladesh. It was the site of the American moon landings between 1969 and '72; the lunar plains are called 'seas' because of their misty blue appearance, which caused some speculation in the Middle Ages that they were actual seas or masses of water.
Who found Neptune's moon Triton and Nereid?
Actually it was found by voyager 2, it's the same that discover Neptune
What do photos of the far side of the moon show?
The crater shapes and shading is different but otherwise the same as this side. Comment: There's one big difference between the far side and the near side of the Moon. The far side lacks the "maria" which are such a feature of the near side.
Does the moon have energy?
Yes, the moon has some form of energy. The energy that is found in the moon is called the lunar energy. There are already scientific research that is being carried out on the same.
