The moon is unique. It's size relative to the earth is large, as compared to the other planets and their moons. This may mean that the moon's origin was different somehow than that of the other moons in our solar system. Of course, it also remains the only planetary body that we have been to and explored.
(You can learn about that amazing feat by visiting our 'To the Moon' section). Recently, probes have discovered a thin deposit of ice near the south pole.
