The moon does not have an atmosphere so small rocks can collide with its surface. As a result, the moon has many more craters than the earth

- Lunar craters are formed when asteroids and meteorites collide with the lunar surface .
- The surface of the moon is covered with thousands of craters .
- Why are there so many craters on the Moon compared to the Earth ? Unlike the Earth , the Moon does not have an atmosphere to protect it from collisions of objects .
- Also , due to very little volcanic geological activity or atmospheric influences from wind or rain , the crater remains untouched for billions of years .
- The ground was also covered with water and vegetation , which slightly concealed the crater from impact .
- The largest craters on the Moon , similar as Mare Imbrium , over , 100 km wide , are filled with lava and only part of the indirect figure are visible .
- This dark " stied " ( meaning " ocean " ) must be youngish than the girding area , as it has numerous craters .
- Simple Moltke- type craters (6.5 km in periphery and1.3 km deep ) have a coliseum- shaped smooth shape of smooth walls .
