Major findings from the Apollo 11 mission indicate that the composition of crystalline lunar rocks differs from terrestrial rocks and meteorites; lunar samples are enriched in refractory elements and some alkali and volatile elements are depleted. The absence of hydrated minerals suggests that no surface water has existed at Tranquility base and that crystalline rocks were formed under low partial pressures. Breccia contained large amounts of nobel gases with elemental and isotopic abundances indicative of origin in the solar wind. No evidence of biological material has been found but evidence of shock and impact metamorphism is common.
