Why does the moon have moon rock?
The moon's surface is covered in rocks because of the impacts of asteroids and cosmic debris over billions of years. These impacts have caused rocks from the moon's interior to be brought to the surface, creating a layer of moon rocks across its surface.
Is moon rock magnetic?
Moon rocks are very similar to earth rocks an they are not intrinsically magnetic.
How many moon rocks on earth?
9
Which layer of the atmosphere Where the moon located?
The moon is outside of the earth's atmosphere.
How do rocks stay on the moon without gravity?
The moon has gravity, but it is much weaker than Earth's gravity. Rocks on the moon stay on the surface due to the moon's gravitational pull, which is about 1/6th of Earth's gravity. This weaker gravity allows rocks to stay in place on the moon despite being less massive than on Earth.
Does the Earth have Moon rocks?
Rocks were brought back to the Earth from the various Moon landings the Americans undertook. No other rocks from the Moon are on Earth. The Moon was formed from the Earth - so, if anything, there are Earth rocks on the Moon.
Why are Moon's rocks so simalar to earth's rocks?
The moon used to be part of the earth
Can you eat moon rocks?
No. Moon rocks are much like the rocks on Earth.
How are moon rocks similar to and different rocks on earth?
Minerals that make up moon rocks are the same minerals that are found on Earth. Some moon rocks have minerals that combine to form kinds of rocks that are not found on Earth. BlueStar(:

Difference of lunar rocks and earth rocks?
Lunar rocks are those forming the Moon - as the word 'lunar' says. Earth rocks are formed on Earth - but the rock forming the Moon is also a constituent of the Earth.
Why are rocks on the moon older than any rocks on earth?
On Earth, plate tectonics and erosion have removed all of the rock that was originally surface rock, exposing the underlying crustal rocks and releasing magma to form new igneous formations. On the Moon, neither process is at work. Meteoroids striking the Moon have piled the rocks up and created a layer of fine powder there, but the exterior rocks are still those that formed shortly after the Moon itself.
Are there rocks on the moon and the earth?
Indeed there are. Lots of rocks.
Why are there rocks on the moon that are older that any rocks on earth?
There is no geologic activity or weathering on the moon to break rocks down, so most of the rocks on the moon are nearly as old as the moon itself. Earth is geologically active and has processes that will destroy and recycle rocks. None of the rocks that made up Earth's original surface are still intact.
How are moon rocks similar and different to rocks on earth?

How are rocks obtained for the earth?
By the moon
Is moon rock magnetic?
Moon rocks are very similar to earth rocks an they are not intrinsically magnetic.
