The part we see is facing us, so the impacts are less frequent being somewhat sheltered by the Earth itself, but they do occur. I’ve understood that the “dark” side is far more pocked with craters and that impacts are much more frequent.

The far side is whooped. I wonder if that's the result of it always facing outward from the earth.

The moon rotates so both sides have an equal chance of being hit unless I am missing something
