Organic matter on the Moon, like all matter, experiences gravity, albeit at about one-sixth the strength of Earth's gravity. The discussion highlights that while astronauts appear weightless, they still weigh significantly less, which affects their movements. The lunar regolith, or soil, behaves differently than Earth soil due to the lack of atmosphere, leading to normal projectile motion when disturbed. The distinction between organic matter and lunar regolith is emphasized, as the latter is primarily composed of rock powder rather than organic material. Overall, the behavior of disturbed material on the Moon is influenced by its lower gravity and absence of atmospheric resistance.
