The surface of the Moon is primarily composed of a rocky material known as regolith, which consists of fine dust and broken rocks. This regolith is rich in minerals such as plagioclase, pyroxene, and olivine, along with volcanic glass and various metal oxides. The Moon's surface also features large basaltic plains called maria, created by ancient volcanic activity, and numerous impact craters resulting from asteroid and meteorite collisions.
