Craters happen when meteorites impact on the Moon's surface.

Most of the craters on the Moon are billions of years old, the impacts were much more common during the early stages of the solar system's formation.

There are craters on the Earth's surface as well. They are just harder to see, because the surface of the Earth changes faster because we have an atmosphere and erosion.
