"Soil" as opposed to "dust" implies some moisture and some organic material. The Moon has no organic material and except for some craters near the poles, no water that we know of.
When we go to the Moon, we'll make our own lunar "soil" by mixing organic material with water and lunar dust.
actually moon has a soil. BUt it is different from the soil of the earth!
yes earth is made out of soil the earth is a plant the is why they call mud earth
there is about 10 percent of soil on earth.
earth's name means fertile soil
the continuous weathering of rocks forms the soil on the earth...

Maybe to prove he went to the moon and they can compare the soil from the moon and soil that is in earth. Same for the rocks comparing them.
The Earth has many layers of soil and rock. The moon is just a big ball of soft rock.

No, the moon is made out of soil similar to that of Earth's soil. There isn't very much documentation on the composition, but the last major hypothesis (made out of cheese) was thrown out after scientific experimentation, which supports an iron core, like Earth, as well as a similar soil and crust composition.
The Colour Of The MoonThe entire moon is the rocky, blueish, grey with a whitish colour to it from what you can see from the earth! :)peace out!! :)
The earth has water,fungus,microbes,canyons,oceans,wind,clouds,and soil including humus.
The moon doesn't have soil like the kind found on Earth. Most of the moon's surface is covered with what is called regolith. This is a combination of fine dust and debris from rocks that was produced when meteors hit the moon.
Similar: Both earth's moon and Mars are (as best as we can tell) biologically dead places. Both have considerable evidence of volcanic activity in their past. Both have some water locked into the rocks and soil in their polar regions Different: The Moon has no atmosphere. Mars has a very thin CO2 atmosphere. There is no obvious sign of oxides of iron in the moon's soil. There is considerable evidence of oxides of iron in the soil of Mars.
PARTIAL ANSWER:Over 800 pounds of moon rock have been returned to earth but I'm not sure of soil samples which would add considerably to that number.
To achieve a mission, part of which was to collect soil and rock specimens.
The moon is to the earth, as the earth is to the sun.
