There is oxygen on the moon, but not as a gas. It is bound up chemically in minerals.
Free oxygen, the gas, is not held to the moon as an atmosphere because the moon has not enough gravity to hold a noticeable atmosphere.

Do they have oxygen on the Moon?
No oxygen is not naturally present on the Moon. The Moon does not have an atmosphere to trap and circulate oxygen like Earth does. However there are some sources of oxygen on the Moon that are created by human activity. These sources include: Oxygen stored in tanks for use in scientific experiments Oxygen created by solar energy to split water molecules in lunar soil Oxygen created by chemical reactions from oxidizing materials on the lunar surface Oxygen generated by lunar landers rovers and other robotic probesHumans have been able to bring oxygen to the Moon but there is still no natural supply of oxygen on its surface.
