The moon's composition is actually quite strange. Normally when a planet is formed, the heavier elements are in the core and the lighter elements are on the surface. However, the moon is the exact opposite. The lighter elements are in the core and the heavier elements, like titanium and other metals, make up the surface of the moon.
Did you know that someone has actually been buried on the moon? In a way. Dr. Eugene Shoemaker’s life long dream was to go to the moon; however, he was denied becoming an astronaut because of his medical conditions.

So in essence he fulfilled his life long dream of going to the moon. Well, kind of.
