Clear sky, full moon
No. Most of the impact craters that have formed on Earth have been destroyed and buried by geologic processes, processes that the moon lacks. While some recent impact craters on Earth remain visible on the surface, they are too small to be seen from the moon.
Mostly from asteroid impacts. The moon has no atmosphere to impede an asteroid's approach, or to disturb the land contours after it has landed, so the craters remain permanently visible.
Well the Moon has its different ways of showing its feelings and you know it really dose have feelings and really there's no other answer to your question. Lack of an atmosphere :) A+ Awesomeness399
Yes, there are craters on the moon that, when viewed from Earth with specific lighting angles, can give the appearance of a face. The most famous of these is the Man in the Moon, visible from certain angles due to the shadows of lunar terrain.
The craters on the moon are clearly visible from Earth because of their size and contrast with the surrounding lunar surface. The sunlight casts shadows in and around the craters, enhancing their visibility. Additionally, the lack of atmosphere on the moon means there is no atmospheric distortion to interfere with our view.
There is no significant amount of erosion on the Moon.
There are several lunar features that are visible to the naked eye, and more are visible with even a very small telescope.The craters are probably the most obvious; circular impact craters caused by the collision of some very large asteroids or comets have created circular mountain ranges that are hundreds of miles in diameter. There are craters in craters, craters ON craters, and chains of craters. Because the Moon lacks an atmosphere, there are no erosive forces to break down and hide the craters (as there is here on Earth) and so the only thing wearing away the old craters are ..... new craters!Lunar craters are usually named for astronomers and scientists.The other major features of the Moon are the maria, or seas. Originally believed to be oceans and seas of water by classical observers, we now believe that they were made by lava flows.

Most of the craters on Earth's moon are believed to have been caused by impacts from meteoroids, asteroids, and comets over millions of years. These impactors have struck the moon's surface and created the circular depressions we see as craters.

The moon has more visible craters on its surface compared to Earth because it lacks an atmosphere to protect it from impacting objects. Earth's atmosphere burns up most small asteroids and meteoroids before they can reach the surface, resulting in fewer visible impact craters. Additionally, the moon's lack of geological activity means that its craters remain preserved over time.
Vitello is one of the craters that are visible on planet earth's moon. It is circular and situated at the Southern hemisphere of the moon.

Mercury is the planet with the most visible craters in our solar system. Its surface is heavily pocked with impact craters due to its lack of atmosphere to protect it from incoming space debris.
The craters on the Moon are considered to be impact craters, caused by meteoroids striking the Moon.
There are 375 craters in the moon.....
