The Moon is rocky primarily due to its formation from the debris ejected into space after a Mars-sized body collided with the early Earth. This material coalesced to form the Moon, which is composed of silicate minerals and lacks significant amounts of water and atmosphere, leading to a rocky surface. Additionally, the Moon's geological activity has been minimal since its formation, resulting in a surface characterized by rugged highlands, plains, and impact craters.
