Interview: The Moon

So I was thinking, that since our course is titled "A Trip to the Moon", that we should get to know a little bit about the moon.
How big is the moon?
The moon is approximately 2,000 miles across.
How old is the moon?
The moon is the same age as the Earth, 4.5 billion years old.
How hot and cold does the moon get?
The moon gets between -280 and 260 degrees Fahrenheit.
How far is the moon from the Earth?
The moon is about 250,000 miles away from the Earth.
What is the surface on the moon like?
The surface of the moon is covered with about two inches of dust.
So now its your turn! What is a question about the moon that you have that you have always wondered?
