      I haven’t seen any cracks in it! There are a lot of scars and craters on its surface though – these are mostly due to things like asteroids and meteorites impacting on it.

      I’m not sure what you mean by this – where is the crack?

      The Earth’s Moon has lots of craters in it because it does have asteroids crashing into it on occassion!
