The whole surface is covered with regolith, or ground up rock. Lunar dust varies in thickness up to a few centimeters, and is both clumpy and sticky due to its electrostatic charge.

The rocks on the Moon have been pulverized by meteor impacts and by the conditions of both scorching heat (in sunlight) and freezing cold (on the night side). There is no air or liquid water on the Moon, and the crust is solid down to the lower mantle.
