As an expert in space exploration and human spaceflight, I can tell you that humans have indeed walked on the moon. This was first achieved during the historic Apollo 11 mission in 1969, where **Astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin** became the first and second people, respectively, to set foot on the lunar surface. They were able to walk on the moon due to the low gravity on the moon, which is about one-sixth of that on Earth. This, combined with the suitable spacesuits and equipment provided by NASA, allowed them to move around and conduct experiments during their extravehicular activities, or moonwalks.

In fact, if you could stand on the surface of the Moon, you would experience only 17% the force of gravity that you would experience on Earth. Gravity on the Moon is much less. ... When the Apollo astronauts first walked on the surface of the Moon, they needed to learn how to walk differently in the Moon's gravity.
