There is no wind, and barely any gravity so the footprints will stay on the moon for yyyyyeeeeaaaarrrrrrsssss.

Footprints are on the moon because astronauts from the Apollo missions walked on its surface. The moon's lack of atmosphere and wind means that footprints can last for a long time without being erased.
There are footprints from 12 astronauts on the moon, as a result of the six Apollo moon landing missions between 1969 and 1972. The lack of atmosphere and wind on the moon has preserved these footprints for millions of years.
No, footprints on the moon are not possible because there is no atmosphere on the moon to preserve them. Without an atmosphere, there is no wind or weather to erode or cover the footprints, so they would remain preserved indefinitely on the lunar surface.
That's correct! Footprints left on the moon by astronauts will remain there for a very long time due to the lack of atmosphere, wind, and water to erode or disturb them. This means that these footprints could potentially last for millions of years.
There is gravity on the moon, it is just weaker than it is on Earth. There is fine sand on the moon. if you step on it, of course there would be footprints.
Yes, the astronauts' footprints are likely still on the Moon since there is no atmosphere or weather to erode them. However, due to the lack of atmosphere, there is also no wind or water on the Moon to completely preserve the footprints, so they may have been slightly distorted by micro-meteoroid impacts over time.
