What is the meaning of crater?
A crater can be a number of things, but there are a pair of definitions, one from geology and one from astronomy, that usually cover the bulk of the applications. A crater can refer to a volcanic crater (caldera), or it can refer to an impact crater resulting from a rock from space slamming into a planet, moon or other body. Links can be found below to help you sort it out further.
Is a crater in a volcano a material or part in a volcano?
A crater is not a separate material or part of a volcano. It is a depression or hollow at the summit of a volcano that forms when the volcano erupts and releases magma, gases, and other materials. The crater is a result of the collapse or expulsion of material during the eruption.
What do the volcanoes at Crater Lake Krakatoa and Santorini have in common?
they are calderas collapse structures
The choke ballast repair method is used when?

A what are bright streaks around a moon crater fanning out from the crater like the spokes of a wheel?
They are called "rays" and were created by ejecta (material thrown out of the crater by the meteor impact).

What size is the chicxulub crater?

What is the diameter of the impact crater hellas?
2300 Km in its outermost ringed structures (Smith etal, 1999. Science)
What is a depression in the Moon's surface caused by the impact of an asteroid or meteoroid?
The usual term is crater. Most craters are nearly circular holes surrounded by rims of ejected material. The term "impact basin" is used for the multiple-ringed structures formed by large impacts.
What is the name of the material that is thrown from an impact crater?
The name of the material that shaters or brakes during impact is called sediment.
How does a crater differ from a caldera?
