Do Jupiter have craters?
While Jupiter is composed mainly of gasses there is a solid core at the center of the planet roughly the same size as the earth. The surface of this core is believed to be composed of glacier ice. Therfore Jupiter does have landforms.
Explain why no craters from the shoemaker-levy-9 impact on Jupiter are visible today?
The impacts on Jupiter were only several kilometers deep, very small compared to the size of Jupiter. The impacts were later seen as dark patches, which disappeared as the winds of Jupiter carried them off.
How many craters are on Saturn?
Jupiter has such a dense atmosphere that anything entering it at high speed will burn up before reaching any solid surface where it could create a crater. In fact, it is not known if Jupiter even HAS a solid surface at all! The pieces of the comet that did hit Jupiter's atmosphere left some pretty amazi ng perturbations in that atmosphere as we saw from pictures taken with telescopes (including the Hubble Space Telescope) shortly after the collisions. Note: the comet had already broken up into many pieces before colliding with Jupiter.
Why are there no impact craters on the surface of lo?
Io, one of Jupiter's moons, does not have many impact craters on its surface because its surface is constantly being resurfaced by volcanic activity. The geologically active nature of Io means that the lava flows and volcanic eruptions continuously erase any impact craters that may form on its surface.
Does Triton have any craters?
Yes, Triton, a moon of Neptune, does have impact craters on its surface. These craters are evidence of past collisions with other objects in space. Many of Triton's craters are relatively well-preserved due to the lack of significant geological activity on its surface.
What is the different mechanisms by which mountains form on the earth and moon?
On earth there are many mechanisms that create mountains. These being rivers, volcanoes, and tectonic plates. The moon does not have any mechanisms itself but is hit with other rock and debris creating craters and mountains.
Do any of Jupiter's moons have a crater?
Yes. As far as I know, all of Jupiter's moons (and all other moons in the Solar System) have craters.

Are there any major landforms in Singapore?

Does Canada have any famous rivers or mountains?
yes, Frio
Does Jupiter has any mountains or valleys?
Yes, Jupiter does not have solid surfaces like Earth, so it does not have traditional mountains or valleys. However, its swirling cloud bands can create variations in height and depth that can be considered as "mountains" and "valleys" in a sense.
