    The moon does not have weather to erode the evidence of asteroid impacts

    Explanation:

    The moon does not have processes that can erase evidence of asteroid impact (or other space events) that impacted the moon, unlike earth. Such processes that hamper this on earth include the atmospheric weather and even the dynamic center of earth responsible for tectonic plate movement and vulcanicity. This means the moon is able to hold a record (frozen in time) of asteroid impacts and other space events that occurred within the earth and its proximity because the earth and moon are closely related celestial bodies.
