As the earth cooled, there was no atmosphere to trap the heat. The surface cooled off fast due to the cold temperature of space (like how the top of coffee cools off when exposed to the air). This created a layer of cooled rock that solidified into the crust. Differences in magma created two types of the lithosphere, oceanic and continental, characterized by the basalt in oceans and granite in the continents.

Hope it helps!! If it does, please mark as brainliest.
