Horrible fact is, most planets and other celestial bodies are a lot like that. Dead rocks.
I wonder if future missions will involve air compressors to clean up with before reentering the capsule, or what ever structures we eventually put in those places. Used to do that after leaving the workshop at the end of the day. Get all that saw dust off.
