No, the Apollo moon landings were not fake. Astronauts did in fact land on the moon during the Apollo missions, with six crewed landings taking place between 1969 and 1972. Multiple lines of evidence, including rock samples, photographs, and telemetry data, support the authenticity of these historic missions.
Neil Armstrong was the first astronaut to walk on the moon during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969.
An astronaut weighs less on the moon because the moon has less mass than Earth, meaning weaker gravitational force. Weight is the result of the gravitational force acting on an object's mass, so with less force on the moon, the astronaut feels lighter.
The astronaut's inertia on the moon would be the same as on Earth, as inertia is an object's resistance to a change in motion. However, due to the moon's lower gravity, the astronaut would weigh less and experience a reduced force opposing their motion compared to Earth.
An astronaut will weigh less on the moon compared to on Earth due to the moon's lower gravity. The moon's gravitational pull is about 1/6th of Earth's, so an astronaut's weight would be significantly reduced on the moon.
Neil Armstrong was the first astronaut to step on the moon on July 20, 1969, during the Apollo 11 mission.
