WEIRD MOON SECRET
What Force Made Its Deep HollOa0s?
BY Garrett P. Serviss-

find that the bottoms of the lunar
craters are in almost all cases
below the level of the surrounding
surface Of the moOn-often many
thousands OF feet below. Their
rims are mountain rings, which,
in all conspicuous cases, are
twenty. thirty. forty. fifty or more
miles in diameter. On the inner
side they pitch down precipitously
one, two or three miles in vertical
depth, while on the outside they
rise only a third or a quarter as
much in height above the sur
rounding plains. In short, the
broad, deep cups in the moons
surface, around which a mountain
rim has been cast up.
A very striking thing is that the
bottoms of some Of these immense
craters are 80 broad that, owing to
the relatively short curvature of
the moons globe. a person stand

ing Of the surrounding rim, whose
top would be below the horizon.
He would seem to himself to be
in the midst of a boundless plain.
How conceive OF a volcano with a
mouth so wide that II swallowed
the whole circle of the horizon?
Yet, although their origin
escapes US, these wonderful lunar
formations have written their own
chronology in terms of relative
age. Not infrequently the tele-
scope shows a huge crater which
has burst through. or broken down
a part Of the wall Of, more
ancient giant OF its own class. to
make room for itself And, sig.
nificantly, these particular craters
have sleeper walls and sharper
peaks on their rims, which may be
regarded as additional proof of
their comparative youthfulness.
But to all appearance they are all
alike dead now, and so must have
been for ages.
In many cases peaks and groups
OF peaks stand in the center Of the
broad crater floors as II they had
been built up there after the
mightier forces that formed the de-
preston in which they stand, and
the vast walls surrounding 1t had
died out. But they give no certain
evidence of volcanic origin.
Two other hypothesis besides
the volcanic one may be men,
toned. One assumes that the
craters were produced by tremen.
dous masses of gas bursting
through the moons crust when 1t
was yet viscous and shrinking.
Another takes the view that they
were made by the impact of gigan-
ito rneteors falling upOn the moon
in a long.past age. Experiments
with projectiles have shown that
formations resembling the lunar
craters may he produced by such
impacts. But the objection that, in
that case, the earth, the moons
near neighbor. ought to have been
equally pitted, has never been salts
factorily met.

One who is sharp-tongued and

VIZ Z do not know how they
" were made. There are
many conjectures intended
to account for them, but none has
been finally accepted. The word
crater" which is usually en-
ployed even In formal scientific
discussions Of the moons topog!'
raphy, is merely a term of conven-
fence, based upon superficial re-
semblance, and adopted at an early
period in the study of selen-
ography, when the volcanic n.y.
pothesis Of the origin Of these for
nations OF the moon was generally
looked upon as probably well
founded.
At present the volcanic hypothe-
osis has been aba ndoned by the ma
jority Of astronomers, although
they have found no satisfactory
substitute for II. The reasons for
it's abandonment appear in an ex-
animation Of the details OF the
lunar craters, as compared with
the volcanic craters Of the earth.
First comes size, which is not,
however, in itself a deciding fac
tor. The earth's surface is about
fourteen times as large as the
moons, but the principal lunar
craters are fifty times larger than
the largest terrestrial one, and
thousands OF times greater in area
than such craters as those of We
suvius. Etna, or Popocatepel.
Even the smallest Of the lunar
craters, which are like pinholes
compared with the giants on whose
flanks and rims they generally ap-
pear, are larger than all but a
very few of the largest craters on
the earth.
This vast relative magnitude Of
the lunar craters might be more
or less satisfactorially accounted
for by the slight force of gravity
on the moon, amounting to only
one-sixth OF that on the earth; but
there are other discordant facts
not so easily eXplciable.
For instance, the typical form
of volcano as we know VOLCANOES
is that of a mountain, more or less
conical in outline, from one or
two up to ten or more thousand
feet in height, and having at the
top funnel-like opening a few
hundred up to two or three thou.

and running down to a pipe" at

or 1000 feet below the summit
This pipe, or chimney, serves as
a conduit for the lava, forced up
into the crater from beneath. The
mountain literally grows" being
built up by successive exudations
from the crater. and as the noun

crater rises with II.
