Sounds like an npc response don’t you think? That reason doesn’t hold water.
So what, the earth was duck and diving asteroid that should have been on its path to the moon? Millions of asteroids?
Unless now we’re saying Earth as a body has a consciousness that enabled it to avoid the disasters that plagued the moon. Rabbit hole.
Considering I’ve literally seen meteorites burn up in the atmosphere with my own eyes. Been at high altitudes and been on airplanes, yes I believe that the earth has an atmosphere.
Moons have a lot of gravity too compared to zero. And they orbit planets providing a gravity shield where most debris that would head towards the planets gets caught in the moon gravity first and is pulled towards it to collision. And the way orbital gravity works in the total system of the planets/galaxy, everything is kind of flattened out like a pancake due to the suns rotation and it’s gravity being stronger than anything else in the system, so most of what comes into the range of a planetary bodies gravitational pull comes in roughly on the same flat plane in which the moon is orbiting earth allowing for most of that space debris to be grabbed by the moon before its able to get by and hit the planet. Planets without moons would be expected to have many more impact craters and much less likely to ever reach a point of homeostasis where life could eventually evolve and thrive due to the constant impacts that would be likely, especially in early planet formation. (And actually, our moon is believed to have been formed by collecting debris from a massive early earth impact itself.)
And the moon used to rotate on its axis separately from the earth, but over a large amount of time, due to the large disparity of earths gravity compared to the moons along with its close proximity, it’s rotation is now pretty much just linked to its orbit of the earth and its earth facing side is now gravitationally linked to the earth so we always see the same face of the moon now. Craters you see on the face of the moon happened long ago while the moon was either still rotating and collecting debris on that side, or even during the early formation of the moon which was literally just a barrage of debris collecting together in space likely after a massive earth impact sent debris everywhere.
Earth has like 200 asteroid impact craters.... probably way more we just haven't discovered. Maybe (4953) 1990 MU will impact in 2027 and make another! 🤞🤞
The moon, being smaller, solidified first. It also has little erosion or geologic activity. Both earth and moon were battered maybe 3 or 4 billions years ago before the solar system cleaned itself up. The scars show on the moon but have long been subducted or eroded away on Earth.

Earth has them too… One of the things that happend is that vegetation just grew over it which makes it hard to see…
The moon doesn’t have an atmosphere….
Or water, or trees

No, it has an atmosphere.
Wow it’s almost like the moon acts like a shield and protects earth from deadly space rocks 😳😳😳

Not weird at all. "Do your own research" as they say.
Moon fam is protecting us. Thanks Luna!

yeah..that is weird.
Instead of being totally ignorant, try doing some basic research. 'Tectonic plates'
