The moon is, in simple terms, like a giant rock.

There is no atmosphere, and in turn no weathering.

Weathering and erosion slowly breakdown rock into sediments and dust.

Because nothing is causing the breakdown of the rock surface to dust (except the occasional meteor) the moon only has a thin layer of dust over its very hard rocky surface.

One kilogram of anything weighs about 5.76 ounces when it's

on the moon, and about 2.205 pounds when it's on the earth.

Not quite. You're measuring two different things there. A kilogram is always a kilogram, no matter where it is. It is a measurement of mass, not weight. Something that is 1 kilo on earth is 1 kilo on the moon as well. Gravity has nothing to do with the mass of the object. Pounds, however, are a measurement of how gravity acts on an object, so something that is 1 pound on earth will be more or less on another planet or moon depending on the gravitational pull.

The estimated amount of cosmic dust and meteorites that falls on Earth varies everyday. The estimated range however is from 5 to 300 metric tons.

It's called regolith. It is the combination of metoric deposition and blasted out lunar material. Very fine, abrasive and clings to equipment and astronaut.

Estimates vary, but the USGS says at least 1,000 million grams, or roughly 1,000 tons of material enters the atmosphere every year and makes its way to Earths surface
