Bouncing on the Moon

Living in one-sixth gravity.

Bouncing on the Moon
Walking on the Moon is more like bouncing or skipping due to its gravity being only 1/6th that of Earth's. Astronauts described it as a dream-like sensation, allowing them to leap great distances with minimal effort. However, the fine, abrasive lunar dust, or regolith, clung to everything and posed a surprising challenge.
