Topographically the Moon is very different from Earth. The Moon's surface is characterized by highlands and lowlands, mountains, and most notably, craters (bowl‐shaped cavities of meteoric origin).These craters are often marked by secondary craters and by rays from ejecta, or ejected matter from the meteor's impact. The Moon's dark regions, called maria, are lava‐filled basins up to 1,000 kilometers in diameter.

In contrast to the Moon, Earth's surface has an extremely varied topography. These differences can be attributed to two primary factors. First, as a larger object, Earth has cooled more slowly since it was formed. In fact, it is still cooling, with heat energy left over from the time of formation of Earth still slowly working its way outward.
