Why is there no air and water in the moon?
Lunar water is water that is present on the Moon. Gradually water vapor is decomposed by sunlight, leaving hydrogen and oxygen lost to outer space. Scientists have found water ice in the cold, permanently shadowed craters at the Moon’s poles. Water molecules are also present in the extremely thin lunar atmosphere.
Why doesn’t life exist on the moon?
The Moon’s weak atmosphere and its lack of liquid water cannot support life as we know it.
Is the Moon water?
NASA recently announced that – for the first time – we’ve confirmed the water molecule, H2O, in sunlit areas of the Moon. This indicates that water is widely distributed across the lunar surface.
Why is there no life on the Moon?
The reason for its lack of an atmosphere is likely its low mass and lack of a magnetic field to protect against stripping by the sun’s radiation. There’s no life because there is no air or water, there is no water because there is no air, and there is no air because of the low gravity.

Does the Moon have an atmosphere?
Just as the discovery of water on the moon transformed our textbook knowledge of Earth’s nearest celestial neighbor, recent studies confirm that our moon does indeed have an atmosphere consisting of some unusual gases, including sodium and potassium, which are not found in the atmospheres of Earth, Mars or Venus.
How can we live on the Moon?
“In order to live on it, we need to have a way of keeping oxygen on the moon. A bubble dome is the most efficient way of encasing civilization on the moon. It is the best shape to hold air pressure. Civilization inside these domes could be similar to life on the Earth.”.
