... as compared to Earth, I suppose. On Earth, the weather will remove most traces of craters rather quickly, in a few million years for large craters, in a fraction of a million years for smaller craters.... as compared to Earth, I suppose.

The craters are formed by a large object such as an asteroid or a comet. When these large objets hit the surface they form holes. Known as craters. Craters can be many shapes and sizes depending on the object. That's how craters are formed. Mars has a much thinner atmosphere than Earth, so more objects reach the Martian surface intact, and the lack of water, glaciers, and plate tectonic mean the craters last longer than they do on Earth.
The large indentation on the surface of the moon areÊcalled craters. It is a circular depression in the surface of the moon and other solid body in the solar system.Ê
The earth is not covered with impact craters because weather and geological activity erodes the craters away over time.

Yes, sometimes they did.

there are more craters on the moon then on earth

No. Earth has relatively few impacts craters.
Earth's craters have been created by Meteorites and Volcanoes.
Earth has volcanoes, craters, and valleys but not rings.
Moon rocks are unique in that they have tiny craters, and even tinier craters within those tiny craters. And within those tiny craters within the tiny craters are even tinier craters. This is due to micrometers which do not reach the earth's surface. It's also a result of large meteors splattering small pieces of moon regolith as secondary meteors. None of this is possible on earth. The similarity between moon rocks and earth rocks is that they are basically feldspars and basalt, the same thing that makes up the earth's crust.
The earth is not covered with impact craters because weather and geological activity erodes the craters away over time.
