What planet is closer to the sun and has craters?
Mercury is closest to the sun and has craters.
Does the sun have craters?
No, the sun does not have craters. Craters are typically found on rocky bodies like planets and moons where impacts from asteroids or meteors have created indentations on the surface. The sun is a massive ball of gas composed mostly of hydrogen and helium.
How is the surface of the moon different than the surface of the sun?
The surface of the moon is rocky and barren, with impact craters and dust, while the surface of the sun is a hot plasma that emits light and heat. The moon reflects light from the sun, while the sun generates its light through nuclear fusion in its core.
Why can we see the craters of the moon so clearly from earth?
We can see the craters of the moon clearly from Earth because the moon has no atmosphere to erode them, so they remain preserved. When the sun shines on the moon's surface at an angle, it creates long shadows that make the craters stand out more prominently, enhancing their visibility from Earth.
What are the planet features of mercury?
It is the hottest planet, and it is very rocky with many craters. It is terrestial and the closest to the sun and also the smallest planet.

What do the sun and the moon don't have in common?
The moon is cold and it has craters . The sun is hot and has lava all over it!
What are some characteristics of Mercury?
Mercury has no atmosphere, is the closet to the sun, and has ice in some craters.
Using a telescope he discovered spots on the sun and craters on the moon the Church tried him as a heretic for his views?
Galileo
Dark marks on the moon?
I am assuming you are referring to the craters in the moon. For thousands and thousands of years, asteroids have been hitting the moon's surface and creating craters. Those craters cast shadows as they do not let light inside of them when the Sun is at an angle, therefore creating "dark marks" on the moon.
How did Galileo contribute to astronomy?
Galileo discovered the sun is the center of the solar system, he improved the telescope, he proved that the moon has craters on it, he claimed Venus has phases, and he observed sun spots on the sun.

What portion of the moon is always dark?
There may be deep craters or crevices near the poles where the Sun never shines.

What are the three features Galileo saw on the moon?
He found that the Earth moves around that sun. The surface of the moon seemed pitted with craters. and the third one I don't know. Hope the other two help! :)
Italian astronomer who first observed the moon through a telescope?
Galileo Galilei found that there were spots on the sun and craters on the moon.
