John, List,
Here are photos showing the landers
and even footprint traces on the Moon:

anding-sites-reveal-man-DID-walk-Moon.html
24 photos here:

Lots of walking tracks and even a
phone line are seen!
Suveyor 3 was visited by the crew of
Apollo 12:

No holes are in evidence. Meteorite
impacts are not more frequent on the
Moon than they are on the Earth.
Here's a video:

No ground-based telescope can see any
of the landers, not even the Hubble can.
The smallest possible thing Hubble can
see on the moon is about 328 feet across
or the length of a football field. While
an impressive feat of resolution, no Apollo
spacecraft comes anywhere near that size.
Every piece of man-made hardware is below
the space telescope's resolution limit.
No, no hardware is a meteorite. They are
all constructed by the Amazing Flying
Monkeys of Planet Three!

Hello Everyone,
As some of you may know, i've recently suffered from some minor dain bramage
and major physical damage--but I still remain to ask my often unimportant
questions.......
However, in this case, I pose some questions that were asked to me to which
I had no answers. Thus, I figured to ask the knowledgable one's--You folks
1. Is there any evidence/photo's of meteorite impacts to the lunar
landing crafts that were left on the surface after our brief visits ?
Also, are ground based telescopes capable of seeing these
crafts ?
2. Can our lunar landing craft's be considered "meteorites"
(in the sense of the definition) ?
Many thanks, John
