We always see just one side of the moon. Let's name this side F for instant and the other one B. The F side has thinner surface than the B side and also has marias.

According to the Giant Impact Hypothesis, near about 4 billion years ago, a huge mars sized stellar object collided with our earth, remelting and sending off its pieces in an explosion, which later cooled down in years to form our moon. The moon on collision with asteroids developed lake like craters, known as maria.

Now, I would like to say we are never cent percent confident about reality(we shouldn't be), so there are two popular models or hypothesis that premise the argument better.

First one is that our earth initially had two moons, our moon and an additional smaller one formed along with it. So this theory states that the smaller moon and ours collided in low speed with less explosion, in which the smaller moon splashed like liquid, engulfed the B side of our moon and eventually deposited there, making that side thicker than F side.

The second hypothesis says that our moon, facing the F side to earth, was very hot after its formation and just 20,000 km away from earth, and the earth too was hot, in fact hotter and due to the heat energy, the F side of the moon began melting, and its mass got deposited on the B side, making it thicker.
