What else can I help you with?
What landforms do the earth and moon have?
Craters
How many impact craters and basins have been found it on earth?
Earth Impact Database, a website concerned with over 170 scientifically-confirmed impact craters on Earth.
What planet has craters made by meteorites?
Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars all have impact craters.
Why are impact craters on Earth harder to see than those on Mercury or the Moon?
Unlike Mercury of the moon, Earth is geologically active. Erosion, deposition, and plate tectonics have buried or destroyed most of Earth's craters.
What might be responsible for most of the craters on earth's moon?
Most of the craters on Earth's moon are believed to have been caused by impacts from meteoroids, asteroids, and comets over millions of years. These impactors have struck the moon's surface and created the circular depressions we see as craters.
Who has more craters the earth or the moon?
there are more craters on the moon then on earth
Do craters cover most of the Earth?
No. Earth has relatively few impacts craters.
Were the earth's craters caused by earthquakes?
Earth's craters have been created by Meteorites and Volcanoes.
Does earth have volcanoes craters rings valleys?
Earth has volcanoes, craters, and valleys but not rings.
How many craters Earth?
There are a huge number of craters on the Earth, including very small impact sites. There are about 65 named and documented craters on the planet.
What does the formation of a crater follow?
There are craters formed by asteroids crashing into Earth. There are craters formed by volcanic explosions. There are craters formed by collapses in the Earth's crust.
What is the main reason that impact craters on the Moon last much longer than impact craters on earth?
Impact craters on the moon have no water/weather to erode the craters away, but on Earth the erosion erases the craters over time.
What object that is covered with craters orbits the earth?
The moon and Luna are the object that is covered with craters orbits the earth
Are mars craters bigger then Earth craters?
yes its like the moons
What burn up craters before they hit the earth?
Nothing burns up craters before they hit earth.
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.
Why do you see many impact craters on the moon but not earth?
The Earth has weather patterns that have eroded most of the craters on Earth. The moon has no weather, therefore no erosion.
