Thatch is the debris of old grass, cut grass and moss on top of the soil at the grass roots. If left unattended it will stop moisture getting to the roots and your lawn will suffer.

Why is it a good practice to aerate lawns?

Aerating lowers the cost of watering your lawn. It helps your lawn to develop a deep root system and your grass to grow green and healthy. It really works, I have aerated 8,000 lawns and seen vast improvements. Some lawns may need to be aerated a lot more then others. These types of lawns include compacted or hilly soils, or lawns that contain a lot of clay in this. If you have a new home and you don't have very good soil, you should also aerate your lawn. It will help you grass to establish it self a lot faster. The last reason why people aerate is because it helps to get rid of thatch build up in a yard.
