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.
