Just as an aside, what made the "open" space in these geode like
hollows 14.7 psi?


That was merely my constructive suggestion, such as derived from
natural geology produced gasses or from being artificially injected
with an atmosphere in order to benefit human habitat usage.

Your NASA claims that the thick and robust basalt crust of our naked
moon(Selene) contains loads of water (250 ppm essentially right at
the surface none the less), as well as there being a host of
radioactive plus other reactive elements to boot. So, I don't see any
problem in that lunar geology as having evolved with its fair share of
such geode and vug like voids (especially since it supposedly cooled
off so fast), or at the very least having substantially porous layers
to work with.
