How many men walked on the moon and what were their names?

McGruff

Twenty-four astronauts have been on or near the Moon. Twelve of these landed on the Moon and actually walked on its surface. As of 2006, only the following twelve people have walked on the Moon, each on one mission only. Nobody has walked on the Moon since 1972, and no additional individuals are expected to join this list for at least another decade. Neil Armstrong - Apollo 11 - July, 1969 Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin - Apollo 11 - July, 1969 Charles "Pete" Conrad - Apollo 12 - November, 1969 (may have been scheduled to land again on Apollo 20, though unlikely as he had already walked on the Moon) Alan Bean - Apollo 12 - November, 1969 Alan Shepard - Apollo 14 - February, 1971 Edgar Mitchell - Apollo 14 - February, 1971 David Scott - Apollo 15 - July, 1971 James Irwin - Apollo 15 - July, 1971 John Young - Apollo 16 - April, 1972 (also on Apollo 10, without landing) Charles Duke - Apollo 16 - April, 1972 Eugene Cernan - Apollo 17 - December, 1972 (also on Apollo 10, without landing) Harrison Schmitt - Apollo 17 - December, 1972 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_lunar_astronauts Mar 12 06, 11:02 PM
