xxTIMURxx [149]
This question may require more information to provide a more accurate answer.

A fault block mountain range is formed by tension as rocks are pulled away from each other. A fault block is a section of rock bounded on at least two sides by faults.
Faults commonly break the crust into large, fault bounded blocks. If normal faults down drop one fault block relative to other blocks on either side, the resulting feature is called a Graben.
A block that is uplifted relative to blocks in either side is called a horst.

Why are there temperature differences on the moon's surface even though there is no atmosphere present?
nika2105 [10]

The lack of an atmosphere means convection cannot happen on the moon. Therefore, there is no form of heat dissipation on regions in direct sunlight. In addition, the lack of an atmosphere means there is no greenhouse effect on the moon. This is why regions facing away from sunlight are very cold.

The term hypothesis refers to an intelligent guess or idea often based which is subject to scientific investigation via experiments.

A hypothesis may be right or wrong. We can only prove a hypothesis by subjecting it to a series of rigorous experiments.

Thus Collette's idea is a hypothesis.
