The Moon is about 4.51 billion years old – significantly older than previously thought. Previous studies had suggested that it formed about 150 million years after the solar system.
Why is there no change in the moon's surface for billions of years?
Eventually, erosion can break a crater down to virtually nothing. The Moon has almost no erosion because it has no atmosphere. That means it has no wind, it has no weather, and it certainly has no plants. Almost nothing can remove marks on its surface once they are made.
How was the Earth and moon formed?
The Earth formed over 4.6 billion years ago out of a mixture of dust and gas around the young sun. It grew larger thanks to countless collisions between dust particles, asteroids, and other growing planets, including one last giant impact that threw enough rock, gas, and dust into space to form the moon.
