I’m sure mostly everybody knows what’s in the center of the earth. Some students know about the center of the sun as well. But what is in the center of the moon? Is it rock? What kind of rock? Is it cheese? Is it like some sort of mozzarella stick orb? 

Well, the center of the moon is dense and metallic. The center of the moon is a solid mass and has two layers, the crust and the mantle. Much like the earth, the crust is the outer layer of the moon and the inner part of the moon is the mantle. 

In earlier times, the moon was a wave of magma, over time the magma began to cool and crystals and minerals began to form in the magma. Crystals and minerals such as olivine and pyroxene sank down to the bottom of the ocean of magma.Lighter minerals such as notably anorthositic plagioclase feldspar floated to the surface and created the moon’s crust. 

Today, the moon has its outer shell of rock and craters and its inside of magma and minerals. Maybe one day we will discover that there is more to the moon then we think.
