"Soil" as opposed to "dust" implies some moisture and some organic material. The Moon has no organic material and except for some craters near the poles, no water that we know of.
When we go to the Moon, we'll make our own lunar "soil" by mixing organic material with water and lunar dust.
What else can I help you with?
Does the moon have soil?
actually moon has a soil. BUt it is different from the soil of the earth!
How is the moons soil different from earths soil?
The Moon's soil, also known as regolith, is primarily made up of fine dust and rocky debris resulting from meteoroid impacts. Earth's soil, on the other hand, contains a mix of organic matter, minerals, water, and living organisms. The Moon's soil lacks the organic components and complex ecosystem found in Earth's soil.
Could a soil sample from the moon contain humas?
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.
What components of soil on earth would not be in the Moons soil?
Organic matter, such as decaying plant and animal material, as well as living microorganisms, would not be found in the Moon's soil. Additionally, minerals and nutrients derived from Earth-specific geological processes, like weathering of local rocks, would also be absent in the Moon's soil.
What is anther name for moon soil?

Is the moon made of mice?
No, the moon is made out of soil similar to that of Earth's soil. There isn't very much documentation on the composition, but the last major hypothesis (made out of cheese) was thrown out after scientific experimentation, which supports an iron core, like Earth, as well as a similar soil and crust composition.
How much moon was brought back to earth?
PARTIAL ANSWER:Over 800 pounds of moon rock have been returned to earth but I'm not sure of soil samples which would add considerably to that number.

What does the earth have that the sun and moon don't?
The earth has water,fungus,microbes,canyons,oceans,wind,clouds,and soil including humus.
How does erosion occur on the moon?
The moon doesn't have soil like the kind found on Earth. Most of the moon's surface is covered with what is called regolith. This is a combination of fine dust and debris from rocks that was produced when meteors hit the moon.
What components of soil on earth would not be in the Moons soil?
Organic matter, such as decaying plant and animal material, as well as living microorganisms, would not be found in the Moon's soil. Additionally, minerals and nutrients derived from Earth-specific geological processes, like weathering of local rocks, would also be absent in the Moon's soil.
Why did Neil Armstrong land on the Earth's Moon?
To achieve a mission, part of which was to collect soil and rock specimens.
