Huge rock debris hit the molten surface of early Earth, creating smaller rocks that formed some what rings around Earth. After a long period of time, with the help of gravity the rocks fused together to form the moon. There are many theories to this question.
Ganymede is Jupiter's biggest moon and currently astronomers think it has 63 moons.
To date no astronomers have landed on the moon. The only scientist to walk the surface is Jack Schmitt, a geologist. For more information debunking the moon hoax myth, see: www.clavius.org
Yes, Maya astronomers were able to predict eclipses of the moon because they closely observed and recorded the patterns of the moon's movement over time. By studying these patterns, they developed a sophisticated understanding of celestial events and were able to predict lunar eclipses with a high degree of accuracy.
Astronomers believe craters on the moon and other planets were created by impacts from asteroids, comets, and meteoroids. When these objects collide with the surface, they excavate debris and create large indentations in the crust. The size and shape of the craters can provide valuable insights into the history of impacts in the solar system.
The phases of the moon were first discovered by early astronomers, likely those from ancient civilizations such as the Sumerians, Babylonians, and Greeks. These astronomers observed the changing appearance of the moon in the night sky and tracked its various phases over time.
Only astronauts have been to the moon.
Some astronomers think that asteroid came from fragments of a planet that disrupted by a strong gravitational force.
Astronomers can predict eclipses because they understand the movements of the Earth, Moon, and Sun in space. By tracking their positions and orbits, astronomers can calculate when the Moon will pass in front of the Sun (solar eclipse) or when the Earth will pass between the Sun and the Moon (lunar eclipse). This knowledge allows astronomers to forecast eclipses with accuracy.

Astronomers think Pluto is a dwarf planet. And they're right.
I think you're asking about the moon's "mares," which are broad, relatively smooth plains on the lunar surface. The word "mare" is Latin for sea, which is what early astronomers mistook the plains for.
Ancient astronomers called the celestial object Selene the moon. Selene was the Greek goddess of the moon, and the name was often used interchangeably with Luna in Roman mythology.
The moon
Yeah. New Moon just came out and I think that Eclipse and Breaking Dawn will be next.
