The soil on the moon, known as regolith, is composed of small rock fragments, dust, and other materials like glass beads and metal particles. It is primarily made up of silicon, oxygen, aluminum, magnesium, calcium, and iron compounds. The regolith is the result of meteorite impacts and interactions with solar wind and cosmic rays over millions of years.
No, soil samples from the moon would not contain humus because humus is a dark organic substance found in soil on Earth that is formed by the decomposition of plant and animal matter. The soil on the moon is largely composed of rock fragments, fine dust, and minerals, with no organic material present.

Soil is composed of mineral particles (such as sand, silt, and clay), organic matter (such as decaying plant material and microorganisms), water, and air. The proportions of these components determine the soil's physical, chemical, and biological properties.
