There are over twenty four astronauts were on or near the moon. Only twelve of them were landed on Moon or actually we can say as they walked on the Moon's surface, for each of them on one mission as of 2006.
Since 1972 neither of them were walked on the moon nor additional individuals are expected to join the 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 (he may have scheduled to land again on Apollo 20, though he already walked on the Moon.)
