Question

One of the most important results of the Apollo missions to the Moon was:

• A. the discovery of subsurface water
• B. the determination of the age of moon rocks
• C. first observations of surface features called craters
• D. proof that craters were produced by volcanic eruptions

Answer 1

The correct option is B the determination of the age of moon rocks

Craters were first observed through telescopes way before the launch of Apollo series to the space. The main objective of the Apollo mission after landing humans on the Moon was to study the geology of the rocks through the samples collected and the photos taken by the astronauts.
