Certainly yes, it meteorite impact formed the same as sites on the other planets.
This is likely a crater, which is formed by the impact of a meteorite or other celestial object hitting the surface of the planet or moon. The impact causes material to be displaced, creating a bowl-shaped depression in the ground.
They believe the planets formed from a disc of gas and dust called a "protoplanetary disc".
Yes, a meteorite crash is considered a natural disaster. It is an unpredictable event that can cause damage and destruction to property and life. While rare, meteorite crashes have the potential to impact an area in a way that resembles other types of natural disasters.
They were made of dust, not rock
The Wolfe Creek Crater in Australia is formed by a meteorite impact and consists mainly of sandstone rocks that were already present in the area before the impact. However, impact-related rocks such as breccia (a mixture of fragmented rocks) and impact melt rocks can also be found in and around the crater. These rocks contain evidence of the intense heat and pressure generated during the impact event.

Yes, meteorites can impact other planets in our solar system. For example, both Mars and the Moon have been hit by meteorites at various points in their history. These impacts can leave behind craters and alter the surface of the planet.

Meteorites that strike the moon's surface can cause impact craters. These craters are formed when the meteorite hits the surface at high speeds, creating a depression in the lunar landscape. Over time, these impact craters can provide valuable information about the history of meteorite impacts on the moon.
The other planets, stars, galaxies, meteors, comets, and asteroids.
gravity
The gas planets are much more massive than the terrestrial planets and therefore have stronger gravity. It is believed that as they formed many of their moons formed around them much like the planets formed around the sun. Other moons are likely captured asteroids and comets.

Gold and silver - and indeed all the elements are not formed on any planet (though they may be found on planets). the elements Hydrogen and Helium were formed at the begining of the universe during the early stages of the big bang. Later all the other elements up to the mass of Iron were formed from hydrogen and helium in the cores of stars. The elements heavier than Iron are all formed in supernova explosions when big stars explode at the end of their lives. These explosions scatter these new heavy elements out into space where the eventually collapse to form new suns and the planets round these suns. Thus all the Gold and Silver found on earth were formed in dead stars and were part of the dusty disk that formed round our sun in its youth. This disk gave rise to all the planets and therefore there will be some Gold and Silver in all the planets. Elements are not formed on planets (Unless human intervention was involved). Heavy metals like Gold and Silver are formed through fusion inside of a star. As a result, gold and silver should be scattered throughout the universe.
The planets with more craters are the ones with less geologic activity. Geologic activity such as erosion, plate tectonics, and volcanic eruptions will wear down, bury, or otherwise destroy impact craters. If there is no geologic activity, then there is nothing to disturb the craters other than later impacts from comets and asteroids.
All the planets of our solar system are believed to have formed at about the same period in time.
