A crater.
Cresent.
Regolith.
Flat regions of dry lava on the surface of the moon are called maria. They are large dark basins formed by ancient volcanic activity and are visible from Earth as dark areas on the lunar surface.
The layer of debris on the moon is called regolith. Regolith is made up of dust, soil, and broken rock fragments that have accumulated on the moon's surface over millions of years.
Cracks in the moon's bedrock are called "faults" or "fractures." These features are caused by stress and movement within the lunar surface, much like on Earth.
A crater.
The depressions on the Moon's surface are called craters. They are formed by the impact of meteoroids, asteroids, or comets hitting the Moon's surface.
Large depressions on the moon are called craters. These are formed by the impact of meteoroids, asteroids, or comets hitting the moon's surface.
Depressions on the Moon formed by large meteorites are called impact craters. They are created when a meteorite collides with the Moon's surface, causing material to be ejected and forming a crater.

Round depressions on the Moon are primarily impact craters, formed when meteoroids, asteroids, or comets collide with the lunar surface at high speeds. These impacts create circular pits, varying in size, with raised rims and sometimes central peaks. Over billions of years, the Moon's surface has accumulated numerous craters due to the lack of atmosphere and geological activity that would otherwise erode them. Some depressions may also be volcanic in origin, known as lava pits or calderas.
A round pit in the moon's surface is called a crater.
Bowl-shaped lunar depressions are called impact craters, and they are formed when meteoroids or asteroids collide with the Moon's surface at high speeds. These impacts create circular depressions with raised rims and can vary in size depending on the size of the impacting object. Impact craters are one of the most common features on the Moon's surface and can provide scientists with valuable information about the Moon's history and geology.
They are called "craters" and were produced by meteor impacts (the vast majority more than 2 billion years ago).

The outer surface of the moon is called the crust.
The saucer-like depressions on the moon's surface are known as impact craters. They are formed when meteoroids, asteroids, or comets collide with the surface of the moon at high velocities, creating circular indentations. These impact craters can vary in size and depth, providing valuable information about the moon's history and geology.
