The dust is actually really sharp irl, afaik. It never has been ground down by weather or wind. So it actually is terrible for equipment and people, lol.
Like the silica storms on mars?
Or am I just misremembering from a sci-fi movie?
I would presume not since a storm would actually weather them down. The dust on the moon is like if sand was actually shards of glass.
