Lunar Dust and Duct Tape

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

The Moon's surface is covered in a powdery layer called regolith, formed by constant micrometeorite bombardment. This lunar dust presented a problem for Apollo astronauts and their equipment. In 1972, Apollo 17 astronauts Harrison Schmitt and Eugene Cernan even used duct tape to repair a rover fender. The fine, gritty dust got everywhere.
