The material that covers the surface of the moon is called regolith, which is also called moon dust. Regolith is made up of the crushed fine powder of volcanic glass and rock fragments.
Yes, exclusively. The entire surface of the Moon is rock in one form or another.
Moonlight is made from the sun's rays reflecting off of the moon's surface.
The word "up" when standing on the moon would refer to the direction away from the moon's surface or towards the sky. This is based on the perspective of being on the moon's surface looking away from it.
No, the moon does not have cheese. This is a myth or folktale that originated as a whimsical explanation for the moon's cratered surface. Scientists have confirmed that the moon is actually made up of rock and dust.
The moon's surface is regolith (ground up rock).

The surface of the moon is primarily made of rocky material, specifically a type of rock called basalt. It also contains other elements and minerals such as silicon, iron, magnesium, and calcium. The surface is covered in a layer of dust and rocky debris called regolith.
The large holes in the moon are naturally there. As soon as the moon came to life the holes are there. The moon was made that way. Although the moon is natural its still made. Things like mountains don't just pop up by them selves !
From ExtremeScience.com: "Scientists estimate that about 50% of the moon's surface composition is oxygen, bound up in silicate minerals!" Even with extensive study, there have been no reports of diamonds or crystals in moon soil. Read more, below.
