Sure does.
That is related to the fact that the Moon has less gravity - its escape velocity is less. This allows any atmosphere to evaporate into space within a reasonable time.
ya it has a little bit less gravity than the moon. its........floaty..........
Equipment on the moon doesn't float away because the moon's gravity is about 1/6th of Earth's gravity, which is still enough to hold equipment in place. Additionally, there is no air resistance on the moon to push objects around like on Earth.
The moon's gravity is too weak to hold on to an atmosphere.
Gravity hold the moon in orbit
The moon has gravity because it has mass, which creates a gravitational pull. However, the moon has no atmosphere because its gravity is too weak to hold on to gases like air. As a result, the moon has a vacuum environment with no air or atmosphere.
No. It does not have enough gravity to "hold" onto rings, let alone a moon.
Because it doesn't have enough gravity to hold the atmosphere down? :D

The moon does not have an atmosphere. Actually the moon does have an atmospere but it's very small. The moon isn't big enough to hold many gases. Not enough gravity...

By the Earth's gravity. This is why celestial bodies like the Moon and Mercury do not have atmospheres, they don't have enough gravity to hold onto the gases.
The moon's gravity is not strong enough to support an atmosphere.
The Moon does not have enough gravity to retain an atmosphere.
There is gravity on the moon but not enough to stay on the groung for long periods of time groung really8===D
The atmosphere is held in place by the earth's gravity. Gravity is related to mass, the more mass a planet has, the more gravity. A much smaller planet like mercury or a body such as the moon will have less gravity, not enough to hold an atmosphere - the gravity is not strong enough to prevent the gas particles from escaping into space.
