The
rocks
and
sediment
collected
by
Apollo
astronauts
contain
vital
clues
to
the
formation
of
Earth
and
the
Moon.
Most
of
this
information,
including
crucial
parts
of
the
history
of
Earth,
cannot
be
learned
by
studying
rocks
on
Earth
because
it
is
so
geologically
active.
Teachers
may
use
these
materials
to
teach
lunar
geology
and
landforms,
rocks
and
minerals,
and
the
history
and
future
of
lunar
exploration.
