Earth's Atmosphere

The Earth are different in many ways, like size, composition, and appearance. The reason the moon has co many craters and Earth doesn't, is because the moon has no atmosphere. Earth's atmosphere burns up meteorites before they can reach the surface, but the moon has no atmosphere, therefore there is nothing stopping the rogue meteorites that crash into the moon. Earth's atmosphere also traps heat from the sun in so that we can stay warm. The moon has nothing to regulate temperature, so the weather there is either very hot or very cold.
