Oxidation. Paint does it to on older cars.
Neglect can cause it as well.
And if you use a fine enough wet sand you can use a buffing or polishing compound to bring the clear back out.

Re: (Deluzional)
Take it to a body shop for a buff and polish... it'll melt the clearcoat a little and reharden it, crack should be gone.. cost you like maybe 30 bucks?
