So earth has a moon which is covered in rock. Meteors slam into it which melts that rock together into very angular (sharp) rock glass.
Rocks on the moon don’t just pile up a little bit. They might be 15 meters deep in certain craters. Almost as helpful as quicksand for those who want to walk or drive over it.
Some of the smallest rocks on the moon cause trouble for astronauts: statically charged dust. It sticks to people and equipment, and creative solutions (pulsingly charged wire grids) have been necessary to mitigate it.
