A reckless extrapolation of the count down to ~1m lunar craters and you're in the region of 10's of billions to 10's of trillions of potholes on moon. Hoping this ends all election potholes > craters statements to bed! 🧪🔭
Huge 🙏 to @planet4589.bsky.social for e-help and advice on this Q.

Cool, and here I've been thinking of writing a crater counting program from DEMs. Given your count, I think the program would probably run for days depending on the algorithm I devise:)

Well.... I'm pretty confident that the damage caused by potholes to vehicles in Scotland is greater than the damage caused by craters to vehicles on the Moon 😀 Even if you calculate per mile driven per vehicle!
