    What is a moon rock composed of?

    Question #57999. Asked by eytank. (Jun 27 05 4:50 PM)

    Imagine asking "what is an earth rock composed of?" You'd get thousands of answers, depending on which rock you analyzed. The moon has a similar history to the earth's...the same elements are present in the moon as are in the earth.
    Or did you mean, what are the bagful of moonrocks brought back to earth composed of? I've seen some (my geology department had some) but can't really remember anything especially remarkable about their composition.

    And that (what potterguy said) supports the hypothesis that the moon was formed from the earth.

    Can everybody on earth see the moon at night or are there nights in which the moon has already gone "under" before nightfall? In other words, is it possible to have a moonless night, not referring to a new moon situation? [Originally #69542 Posted on Aug 10 06 by dutch_frank_65 - Deleted in error.]

    Although the lighted area of the full moon is only twice as large as that of the moon at first or last quater, the full moon is about nine times brighter. Why?
