What does the surface of the moon contain?
The surface of the moon contains craters of all sizes and dry lunar soil. The soil does not contain air and anything organic. Grabens, maria, domes and rilles are other things that can be found on Moon's surface.
How are the planet's moons different from ours?
One obvious difference is: our moon is the only one so far observed whose rotational and orbital periods are the same (we only see one side of it from here). Also, Earth seems to be the only planet with only one moon. Some other differences are: chemical and mineral makeup, many of the moons are far enough from the sun that they have some type of ice on their surface (like ammonia or carbon dioxide).
How many surfaces does the moon have?
The Moon is in synchronous rotation, which means it rotates about its axis in about the same time it takes to orbit the Earth. This results in it keeping nearly the same face turned towards the Earth at all times. The Moon used to rotate at a faster rate, but early in its history, its rotation slowed and became locked in this orientation as a result of frictional effects associated with tidal deformations caused by the Earth.Small variations (libration) in the angle from which the Moon is seen allow about 59% of its surface to be seen from the Earth (but only half at any instant).The side of the Moon that faces Earth is called the near side, and the opposite side the far side. The far side is often inaccurately called the "dark side," but in fact, it is illuminated exactly as often as the near side: once per lunar day, during the new Moon phase we observe on Earth when the near side is dark. The far side of the Moon was first photographed by the Soviet probe Luna 3 in 1959. One distinguishing feature of the far side is its almost complete lack of maria.
How many woman have been on the moon?
No Earth women have ever been on the moon, but many have been over the moon.
What is the percentage of gases found within 10 km of earth's surface?
The Earth's atmosphere within 10 km of the surface contains approximately 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and the remaining 1% is made up of trace gases such as argon, carbon dioxide, neon, helium, and methane.
How do scientist know what moon crust is made of?
Scientist knowwhat the moon's crust is made of because the visited the moon's surface before.
What is moonlight made of?
Moonlight is made from the sun's rays reflecting off of the moon's surface.
Is the moon a potato?
I is made from Iron Core and Silicate Surface.
Why did the angels put their cheese on the moon?
They didn't - the Moon is not made out of cheese, nor has cheese on its surface.
What are moon buggies made for?
Moon buggies, also known as Lunar Rovers, were made for transporting astronauts and equipment on the surface of the moon during Apollo missions. They were designed to be lightweight, durable, and capable of navigating the rough and dusty terrain of the lunar surface.
True or false carters are holes or circles on the surface of the moon?
The circles visible on the surface of the moon are indeed craters made by the impact of bodies from space.
What did Neill Armstrong do to the surface of the moon?
Neil Armstrong made footprints.
Why do people insist that the moon is made of rock?
maybe cause the surface seems like it made of it
What is the surface of the moon called?
The outer surface of the moon is called the crust.
What are the large indentions on the surface of the Moon?
You're probably talking about craters. Craters are made when an Asteroid hits the moon.
What is covers the surface of the moon?
The material that covers the surface of the moon is called regolith, which is also called moon dust. Regolith is made up of the crushed fine powder of volcanic glass and rock fragments.
What is the suface of the moon like?
The surface of the moon is dusty foot prints that were made by Neil Armstrong (the first man to walk on the moon) are still there today.
