@celestography: Craters on the Moon are formed when asteroids, meteoroids or comets smash into its surface at extremely high speeds. Because the Moon has almost no atmosphere, nothing burns up before impact, so even small space rocks hit the ground directly. The force of these collisions blasts out huge amounts of lunar soil and rock, leaving behind the bowl-shaped craters we still see today. #spacefacts #moon #Astronomy #nightsky #universe
