First time people walked on the moon?

July 20, 1969


When is the last time man set foot on the moon?

Apollo 17 landed on the moon on December 11, 1972, and departed on the 14th. The astronauts on Apollo 17 were Eugene A. Cernan, Harrison Schmitt, and Ronald E. Evans (Command Module pilot). Gene Cernan was the last man to walk on the moon.


Does Oprah own an island?

No one owns land on the moon. Until such time as there is actually someone living on the moon, it is meaningless to assert ownership of the moon. There is also a UN treaty which reserves outer space for the common benefit of mankind.


What were the to later trips to the moon in America since the first American astronauts mission to the moon?

The American Apollo Missions 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17 were the later trips to the moon after the first one. Apollo 17, which happened in the 70's, was the last time humans have been to the moon.


Who was the Last man to step foot on the moon?

There are two ways to answer this question. The twelth person, out of a total of twelve moonwalkers, to walk on the moon was Harrison "Jack" Schmitt, LMP of Apollo 17. In doing so he became the last person to step foot on the moon, but he was not the last man to ever stand on the moon.Due to NASA's flight rules, Gene Cernan, as Commander of the mission, was the first to exit the LM at the beginning of each EVA and the last to reenter the LM at the end of each EVA. This makes Gene Cernan the eleventh man to step foot on the moon, but the last person to stand on the moon.As a side note, when Jack stepped off the LM landing pad onto the moon's surface he became the first (and, so far, only) geologist to ever explore a celestial body, other than the Earth, in person.US Astronaut Dr. Harrison Schmitt (born July 3, 1935) who departed the lunar surface on December 17, 1972 (UTC). Schmitt and Eugene Cernan, the lunar EVA crew for Apollo 17, spent 6 days on the moon, from December 11 to December 17, 1972.
