There is quite a lot of oxygen on the moon, just not in the form of a gas. It is tied up in the rocks as metal oxides and other minerals.

There is no atmospheric oxygen on the moon. There is oxygen bound up in the regolith, most notably in the mineral ilmenite. The quantities are as yet unknown


Is there lots of oxygen on the moon?

Oxygen, in its gaseous form, does not exist on the moon. The moon has a much smaller mass than the Earth, and so does not have enough gravity to hold an atmosphere. However, there are several minerals on the moon that have been identified by the lunar landing that have high concentrations of oxygen in a solid state.


What is the oxygen supply on the moon?

The moon has a very thin atmosphere with no oxygen. Therefore, there is no natural oxygen supply on the moon. Humans would need to bring their own oxygen supply if they were to visit or live on the moon.

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.


Why will you not be able to breathe on the moon?

because there is no oxygen in moon
