There have been six successful manned lunar landings and twelve people who have walked on the moon.
1) Apollo 11
Neil Armstrong CDR (Commander), Edwin (Buzz) Aldrin LMP (Lunar Module Pilot)
2) Apollo 12
Pete Conrad CDR, Al Bean LMP
3) Apollo 14
Alan Shepard CDR, Edgar Mitchell LMP.
Al Shepard was the first American in space, on the Freedom 7 Mercury mission, and was the only one of the "Original Seven" American astronauts to land on the moon.
4) Apollo 15
Dave Scott CDR, Al Worden LMP
Apollo 15 was the first mission to use the Lunar Rover
5) Apollo 16
John Young CDR, Charlie Duke LMP
Apollo 16 was John Young's second voyage to the moon (previously on the Apollo 10 'practice' mission)
6) Apollo 17
Eugene Cernan CDR, Harrison (Jack) Schmidt LMP
Apollo 16 was Gene Cernan's second voyage to the moon (previously on the Apollo 10 'practice' mission)
Three additional Apollo missions traveled to the moon but did not land.
Apollo 8
Frank Borman CDR, Jim Lovell CMP, Bill Anders LMP.
Apollo 8 was the first manned mission to the moon. It went without a Lunar Module to prove the trip, and lunar orbit, was possible, and to photograph possible future landing sites. The crew were the first humans to witness 'earth rise' from the moon.
Apollo 10
Tom Stafford CDR, John Young CMP, Eugene Cernan LMP
Apollo 10 was the second manned mission to the moon and the first to carry a Lunar Module. It was the final practice mission prior to the Apollo 11 landing, and was used to prove the Lunar Module would work as planned by flying it to within a few miles of the lunar surface before rendezvous back with the Command Module. John Young returned to the moon, and landed, as CDR on Apollo 16. Gene Cernan returned to the moon, and landed, as CDR on Apollo 17.
Apollo 13
Jim Lovell CDR, Jack Swigert LMP, Fred Haise LMP
Apollo 13 was meant to be the third lunar landing mission (after 11 and 12), but due to the explosion of an oxygen tank that caused extensive damage the mission was aborted and the crew circled the moon and returned to earth (barely). The harrowing experience is documented in the Ron Howard movie, Apollo 13, starring Tom Hanks. The mission was the second time to the moon for Jim Lovell (previously on Apollo 8), and he has the distinction of being one of three men to journey twice to the moon, but the only one of the three not to walk on its surface.

12. See question "how many manned moon landings have there been?"
The Russians have failed to make a single moon landing, they were not interested in landing on the moon.
Manned missions to the moon: there have been eight successful manned missions to the moon, including six landings.
Between 1969 and 1972.

There have never been any "fake" moon landings.
human:the moon,and mars Robot:moon,mars,and the others,but no landings on gas giants
all
There have not been any manned landings on the "back" side of the moon, for the simple reason that radio communication with Earth would be very difficult.

The possibility of moon landings, for the moment, are slowing. Most work now, since the moon has been landed on and charted, is on the ISS.
