The darker areas on the Moon are called "maria," Latin for "seas," because Early astronomers thought they were seas. In fact they are dry plains caused by lava flows from early impacts by asteroids. They simply reflect less light than the highlands around them. The source below is an excellent collection of fine photographs of the Moon.
The dark areas on the moon are called maria. They are enormous impact craters that were once flooded with lava early in the moon's history.

The dark spots on the moon are called lunar maria, which are large plains formed by ancient volcanic activity. The lighter areas are called highlands, which are rugged and densely cratered regions of the moon's surface.
The dark spots on the Moon, known as lunar maria, are made up of basalt rock formed from ancient volcanic activity. Basalt is a dark-colored, fine-grained volcanic rock that is rich in iron and magnesium minerals.
The dark spots on the moon are called "maria," which is Latin for seas. They are actually large plains formed by ancient volcanic activity and appear darker than the surrounding lunar surface due to their basaltic composition.

The color of their fur is pure white with dark black spots. They can also have a smoky gray or yellowish fur. The spots could be dark gray instead of dark black spots.

i think when the moon cooled down.
Dark spots on the moon during a lunar eclipse are caused by the Earth blocking direct sunlight from reaching the moon. These dark spots are the shadow of the Earth falling on the moon's surface, which gives the moon its reddish appearance during a total lunar eclipse.
The moon is a sphere about one- seventh of the earth's size. It has dark spots and bright spots and craters.
Reforming
They were created by meteors hitting the moon and making craters.
Narwhals are different colors. Some are dark on the top and light gray on the bottom. Their faces and fins are also dark gray. Some are cream with white, green, and brown spots. The narwhals have spots all over their bodies.
The lighter parts on the moon are mountains and highlands. They are more visible as they are at higher elevations. The darker parts are lunar maria, basins cut out by ancient lava flows. They have less craters than the highlands, as the lunar maria were formed after the time period where the most lunar impacts occurred.
The moon is generally a dark gray, but it looks silver when it is illuminated by the sun.
