Impossible! Everyone knows the moon is made out of stinky, stinky cheese!

But that's why there being magma on the moon would be so awesome, because it would melt the cheese and there would be fondue for all!
But in all seriousness, I've been hearing theories on the moon still containing a "lukewarm" (by geological standards) core for some time now. This doesn't surprise me at all.
Huh. I just thought the moon was a just a solid object.

Probably was a planet at one point.
No
But one of the active hypotheses is the moon was part of the earth that separated in it's early life since they contain some of the same sediments found on earth.
The moon is a coalation of rock and dust that formed from a ring the Earth once had after a large planetoid the size of Mars named "Orpheus" smashed into Earth and sent billion upon billions of tons of rock into orbit. The moon actually formed in a year, and probably less than that. In short, the moon is actually made from the Earth itself.
Look up "Giant Impact Theory". it's the one with the most evidence so far.
