What causes the dark spots on the surface of the moon?
The dark spots on the surface of the moon, known as lunar maria, are caused by ancient volcanic eruptions that filled large basins with basaltic lava. These lava flows solidified to create the smooth, dark areas that we see on the moon's surface.
Why is the moons surface much more heavily cratered than earths surface?
A Biblical answer from Genesis 1 would be that in the beginning the Earth was covered with water. During creation week this water was separated into areas on the Earth and above the Earth. Like seas/lakes below and a "giant peel" of water above somewhere in the stratosphere. Any Meteors impacting the earth at first would fall in water, later go through the "peel of water". So only after the Flood Meteors that survived the Atmosphere would hit the Earth and leave a crater, hence less craters on Earth.
What are earths moons names?
Earth has one natural satellite, commonly referred to as "the Moon."

What are the moons craters called?

What has caused all of the craters on the moons surface?
Space rocks (meteors) striking the surface.
What is the most common landform on the moons surface?
Impact craters or astroblemes.
Is there a hole in the moon's surface?
Yes, the moon does not have holes like Earth does. However, it does have craters, which are formed by impacts from meteoroids and asteroids. These craters can appear as "holes" on the moon's surface when viewed from a distance.
Does Neptune's moons have craters?
what of neptune's moons have craters
What are craters on a planet?
Craters are where a chunk of space debris, such as a meteor or comet, has struck the surface of the planet and has caused material from the planets (or moons) surface to be ejected outwards.
