Because there is No GRAVITY!
Well... yes and no...
Yes: Solar wind erodes the lunar surface but the effect is almost unnoticeable.
No: The moon has no atmosphere so there's no weather to cause 'typical' erosion.

Why does erosion not occur on the moon?
There is no wind or rain
Why do the craters of the moon hardly change?
There is no erosion from wind or water.
Why do the moon and mercury have more meteor impacts then earth?
There is no erosion on the moon and mercury to erase the impact sites.
Why aren't impact craters eroded in the moon?
No atmosphere, no rain, no wind, no erosion.
Why is there no weathering and erosion in the moon?
because there is no weather on the moon. there's no air, no water, no life whatsoever. the only cause of surface changes on the moon are meteors and astronauts
Why does erosion occur on the moon?
it doesn't happen on the moon ... there no wind , water or any thing else that causes erosion on the moon :)
Does the Moon have weathering or erosion?
No weather on Moon.
Can both erosion and weathering occur on the moon or other planets?
Erosion can not happen on the moon, because there is no wind or clouds in the atmosphere.
Is there eroision on the moon?
There is no atmosphere on the Moon and no large bodies of water to cause any forms of erosion, so there is no erosion like on Earth.
Do weathering and erosion occur on the Moon?
No because there is no wind or water on the moon
Why does erosion not occur on the moon?
There is no wind or rain
Do weathering erosion and deposition occur on the moon?
No because there is no wind or water on the moon
Is there weathering erosion or deposition on the Moon?
There is deposition - from the impact of meteors colliding with the moon.
Is there erosion on the moon?
Not as you are used to on Earth surface. Erosion is caused mainly by water and air movement, which do not exist on the Moon's surface. However, seismic activity and impacts from asteroids may cause effects not dissimilar to erosion.
Weathering and erosion on the moon?
Can't happen. Weathering takes air in motion (wind), and erosion takes water in motion, and there's none of either on the moon.
What is the primary source of erosion on the Moon?
There is no erosion on the moon, except perhaps from the impact from meteorites knocking things around. There is no liquid nor is there an atmosphere to erode anything.
Mountains are jagged because the moon has no?
because the moon has no oxygen and water to have weathering or erosion
