Moon Dust in the Wind
Astronaut Buzz Aldrin walks on the surface of the moon during the Apollo 11 mission. The first lunar explorers didn't experience severe health effects from lunar dust because their visits to the moon were brief
Moon Brick
Researchers at Virginia Tech devised a way to make building material from a lunar rock-like material mixed with powdered aluminum. The strong moon bricks could be molded into any shape.
Lunar Lookout
This artist's conception shows NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter on its way to the moon. The craft, slated for launch in June 2009, will map the lunar surface so NASA can find safe landing spots for future astronauts

'Wet' Moon Glass
Green glass spherules collected from the Apollo 15 landing site at Hadley Rille on the moon. These samples represent volcanic deposits formed early in the moon's geologic history. A research team found up to 46 parts per million of water in tiny volcanic glass balls.
