When you think about it, how many of those hits would have struck the earth if the moon wasn't in the way?

Most of the surface marks are from the late heavy bombardment. 3.8-4.1 billion years ago.

There are concentrated clusters of impact craters on the south pole. I wonder if that tells astronomers anything about common paths of travel for large impact objects?
