Meteors are objects that fly into earth's atmosphere and burn; sometimes they burn up completely and sometimes they land on the ground (or water). The Moon does not and hopefully never will hit the earth's atmosphere. The Moon is a satellite of Earth; that is to say it orbits around the Earth. Meteors are not satellites; they just fly in from wherever.
it depends on the size of the meteor, usually the moon is bigger
A meteor that strikes the moon's surface is called a meteoroid when it is in space, a meteor when it is burning up in Earth's atmosphere, and a meteorite once it lands on the moon's or Earth's surface.
No, Apollo 11 did not get hit by a meteor during its mission to the Moon in 1969. The spacecraft successfully landed on the Moon and then returned safely to Earth without encountering any meteor impacts.
The difference between a person's weight on the earth and on the moon has to due with the difference between mass and weight. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter and weight is the pull of gravity on that mass. Gravity on the moon is about 83% that on earth, so if you weigh 100 lbs on earth, you will weigh approximately 17 lbs on the moon.
There is no erosion on the moon and mercury to erase the impact sites.

Yes.The moon actually does have craters left by meteor crashes.
it is called the moon light Theonmena
The difference is that the earth has one and the moon doesn't.
The moon was not significantly affected when the meteor hit Earth. The impact did not have any direct effects on the moon's orbit or composition.
A moon stone can be found in Meteor Falls.

Sitem, is the name of another moon for Neptune and it is derived from this, the meaning is 'meteor-like', because the moon itself looks like a meteor. Hope I helped :)
