What does the age of the lunar rocks tell us about our solar system?
They tell us the age of the moon, which indicates when the Solar System itself was being formed.
What do maria tell us about the Moon's history?
The answer would be quite detailed, but put simply, by studying the rocks and formations in them we can tell the age of different parts, and seismic events that may have happened there, much the same way as geologists do on Earth.
What is so important about moon rocks?
Moon rocks are valuable because they offer scientific insights into the composition and formation of the Moon, Earth, and the solar system. They also provide direct evidence of the Moon's history, including its volcanic activity and impact events. Studying moon rocks helps us better understand the early stages of planetary formation and the processes that have shaped our celestial neighbor.
What are 5 words around the target that would tell us about the Earth's moon?
it is rocky and has a solid cap
How does light travel through the moon?
Light from the Sun travels in a straight line through space and when it reaches the Moon, it can be reflected, absorbed, or scattered. The Moon's surface is covered in fine dust and rocks which can reflect and scatter the light, allowing us to see the Moon as bright in the night sky.

What does the age of the rocks tell us about your solar systems?

How have the moon rocks that astronauts brought back to earth help scientist understand the history of the moon?
The moon rocks that astronauts brought back to Earth foe scientists to understand the history of the moon by having them study how old the moon is and determine its age. It can also tell the layers which now we already know. Also the moon pieces helped us determine how the surface of the moon is like with out going there, which saves money. - Angie Plata
How are moon rocks used to determine the age of the Earth?
The oldest moon rocks are actually older than the oldest Earth rocks. The moon formed from accreted material that resulted from a collision between Earth and a Mars sized protoplanet. Both the Earth and the moon were molten for a period after the collision. Because of the moon's smaller size, it's surface cooled very quickly compared to the Earth. The solidified magma (rock) that formed the moon's crust has been dated at roughly 4.4 billion years of age. Even though no Earth rock has been found to date this old, we can still reasonably assume that the Earth is at least that old due to the fact that the moon is formed from accreted material from the previously mentioned collision.
Why are the rocks on the moon that are older than any of any rocks on us?
Because

How would the side of the moon that faces us have craters at all if it is facing us here on earth?
Space rocks can come from any direction; they can miss the Earth and then whack the Moon's nearside.
What fossilized ripples tell about the conditions whene rocks formed?
The fossilized ripples tell us about the environmental conditions when the rock was formed
