When astronauts go to the moon do they always take the same path?

No because they could be going to the moon while it's in a different spot. Answer There are no "path" in space. I guess I agree with the above. You could still launch at the same time and just orbit the moon an extra half revolution before descending. There are man variables in how to get to the moon.

How did the astronauts that got to the moon get there if the moon is always moving around the earth?
They did it exactly the same way you shoot a duck: They aimed for the place where the moon would be when they arrived there.
What do astronauts need on the moon?
Air, food, and water, same as on Earth.
What is a astronauts mass on the moon?
Irrespective of where the astronaut is, their mass is going to be remain the same
Why do astronauts bleed on moon?
I never heard that any did, however I would imagine it would be for the exact same reasons that a person would bleed on the Earth. If you are asking if the moon caused the astronauts to bleed, then no.
Could astronauts on the moon see the sun and the stars at the same time?
yes they can because they are in the middle
How the astronauts able to see earth on the moon?
The astronauts on the moon were able to see the earth at all times, though not the same face of earth each time. Unlike on earth, from an observers fixed position, the moon would be in view between moon rise and moon set, only.
Why does the visible surface of the moon always look the same?
The Moon's face does change - but not much. The Moon's rotation is generally aligned with its orbit, so that the same face is always turned to the Earth. But the Moon's ORBIT is somewhat eliptical, so the speed of the Moon in its orbit varies a little. So instead of seeing just 50% of the surface of the Moon, we can actually see about 60%, and the "face" in the Moon turns just a little side to side as the Moon follows its decidedly NON-circular path.
Why do astronauts have to be securely safe on the moon?
I'm not really sure what you're asking, but the astronauts live on the moon in much the same way that man lives underwater. They have to take everything with them to survive including food, water, oxygen and a method to purify the air.
Why can we always see the same side of the moon from earth?
The moon rotates and revolves at the same rate
Why does the moon have different temperatures even though there is no atmosphere?
The moon is in an orbit where it will never face us. Whenever the moons dark side is faced away it will always be in the shade, thus making it colder. Same with the bright side. Fun fact for you: The Apollo astronauts were the only people to see the dark side of the moon.
Is the moon always the same?
What on earth (or rather the moon) is that supposed to mean?!
What year did the three astronauts land on the moon?
Three astronauts never landed on the Moon at the same time, 2 landed on the Moon and 1 stayed in the spaceship. Also, what mission are you talking about- Apollo 11, 12,* 14, 15, 16, or 17? If you mean Apollo 11 then its 1969. *Apollo 13 never made it to the moon.
