the craters on the moon and mars are from asteroids bumping into it.
There is plenty of water on Mars but only a little on the Moon (maybe in the permanently dark craters).
Mars and our moon do not have dense atmospheres where many of the smaller probable impacts break up prior to reaching terra firma's earth. Second the earth's massive tectonic shifts mold the earth slowly and the actions of wind, water, and life break down geologic features, so many visible craters are erased.
Many of the larger craters on the moon can be seen from earth without a telescope, so nobody discovered craters on the moon with a telescope.
Mars and the moon are both celestial bodies in our solar system. They have surface features like craters and mountains, but Mars has a thin atmosphere and evidence of past water, while the moon has no atmosphere and no traces of liquid water. Both have been explored by spacecraft and have attracted significant scientific interest.
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.
Because Mars has an atmosphere. The Moon and Mercury do not.

I think there are called craters. I thinks so dont take my word for it.
Mars has volcanoes and craters, but not rings.
At one time Mars had a thicker atmosphere and what appears as free running fluids on its surface. Over time, these things erode away surface features such as craters.
The craters on the Moon are considered to be impact craters, caused by meteoroids striking the Moon.
There are 375 craters in the moon.....
Mercury is most similar to Earth's moon. Like the moon it is a rocky, airless world covered in craters.

The large indentation on the surface of the moon areÊcalled craters. It is a circular depression in the surface of the moon and other solid body in the solar system.Ê
72 craters are on mars. And a few more, I think.
there are more craters on the moon then on earth
