Craters on the moon are not volcanic, they are impact craters.
The craters of the moon in Idaho were formed by volcanic activity, particularly basaltic lava flows and explosive eruptions. Around 15,000 years ago, the region experienced a series of volcanic eruptions that created numerous craters and features, including lava tubes and fields. The unique landscape, characterized by its rugged terrain and diverse geological formations, showcases the powerful forces of volcanic activity that shaped it over millennia. Today, Craters of the Moon National Monument preserves this extraordinary volcanic landscape.
The moon is known for having many craters. Some of the craters have been given names by various astronomers and scientists, based on explorations of the moon done by NASA
Maria and craters are features found on the Moon's surface. Maria are large, dark, basaltic plains formed by ancient volcanic eruptions, while craters are depressions created by the impact of meteoroids, asteroids, or comets striking the Moon's surface. Maria are relatively smooth and cover about 16% of the Moon's surface, whereas craters vary in size and can be found across the entire lunar landscape.
The large indentation on the surface of the moon areÊcalled craters. It is a circular depression in the surface of the moon and other solid body in the solar system.Ê
Yes
There are 375 craters in the moon.....
Meteorites. They hit the moon frequently, causing many craters.
Some were probably volcanic but the craters large enough to be seen with smaller telescopes were almost all made by impacts.
isw there a way to figure how may craters are on the moon
The moon has plenty of craters, many of which can be seen from Earth, with a good telescope or binoculars. The craters are there, because the moon has no atmosphere for the objects to burn up in, so all of them hit the moon.
Yes.The moon actually does have craters left by meteor crashes.
there are many craters on the moon.also craters are holes in the moon from people who walked on the moon
Since the Moon is cold and has no volcanoes, virtually all the craters there are the results of impacts.
The moon has many craters because it lacks an atmosphere to protect it from impacts by meteoroids and asteroids. When these space rocks collide with the moon's surface, they create craters that remain preserved due to the moon's inactive geological processes.
Many of the larger craters on the moon can be seen from earth without a telescope, so nobody discovered craters on the moon with a telescope.
The craters on the Moon are considered to be impact craters, caused by meteoroids striking the Moon.
