Cheese. Everyone knows that.
Just kidding.
The composition of the rocks on the moon based on samples of lunar rocks are volcanic in origin. The rocks are basalts, similar to the kind of volcanic rock found on Earth. The lunar basalts are rich in iron and magnesium, and they also contain glassy structures that are indicative of rapid cooling. However, unlike Earth basalts, the lunar samples contain no water and a lower percentage of volatiles (elements or compounds with low melting and boiling temperatures) relative to refractories (higher melting and boiling temperatures).

If you had asked about cheese I could have answered.
The moon is made up of the rocky material that makes up the bulk of the planets and moons.

It is very similar in composition to the mantle of the earth, suggesting its origin in a previous collision between the Earth and a former Mars sized planet.

Silicon, oxygen, aluminum...that kind of thing. It's the same as the Earth's mantle, since that's mostly where it came from.
