... as compared to Earth, I suppose. On Earth, the weather will remove most traces of craters rather quickly, in a few million years for large craters, in a fraction of a million years for smaller craters.

Are there bottomless craters on the moon?

Yes there are craters, and yes some of them are very deep. All craters, however, do in fact have a bottom. A bottomless crater would actually be best described as a "hole," and there are no holes through the Moon.


What cause the crater's on the Moon's surface?

These craters range in size up to many hundreds of kilometers, but the most enormous craters have been flooded by lava, and only parts of the outline are visible. The low elevation maria (seas) have fewer craters than other areas. This is because these areas formed more recently, and have had less time to be hit.


What are some geological features of the moon?

holes in the moon and foot prints and craters


Are all craters on the moon?

No. Almost all large solid objects in the solar system have craters.


Did volcanic eruptions cause craters on the Moon?

Some were probably volcanic but the craters large enough to be seen with smaller telescopes were almost all made by impacts.


What are some lunar features of the moon?

No atmosphere, dry, dusty, rocky surface, mountain ranges, maria: low, flat areas, dark areas (basaltic lava) impact craters.


Which body has many craters in space?

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


What are some landforms found on the moon surface?

rilles highlands volcanic dome ray crater craters and a maria.


How were craters on the moon formed?

Craters on the moon were mostly formed by impacts from meteoroids and asteroids colliding with the moon's surface. When these objects traveling at high speeds hit the moon, they create craters by excavating material from the lunar surface. Some craters may also have been caused by volcanic activity early in the moon's history.


Is the moons craters deep?

The depth of a moon's craters can vary depending on factors like the size of the impactor and the composition of the moon's surface. Some craters can be shallow, while others can be relatively deep, reaching depths of several kilometers. Overall, the depth of a moon's craters is influenced by a combination of factors related to the impact event.


Why are there dents on the moon what are they th ere for?

The dents (properly called craters) in the moon are caused by the impacts of comets and asteroids (bodies from space) hitting the moon very hard and fast (a long time ago). Subsequently some of the craters have been filled with lava from the interior of the moon these form the dark areas that you can see on the moon.


Why does the moon have craters an the earth does not?

The Earth does have craters, but because of the seas and vegetation on land, they are not as noticeable. However there are some that are very noticeable, like the famous one in Arizona. Craters on Earth and the Moon are caused by impacts of meteorites.
