A parachute requires the drag of the atmosphere to slow the descent. As there is no atmosphere on the Moon, a parachute would be as useful as a chocolate diaper (nappy).
The moon had no atmosphere thus using parachute for deceleration is not possible. The moon lander deceleration is entirely depend on thruster to counter moon gravity until touchdown.
There is no air in the moons atmosphere so a parachute would not open.
The Moon is much too far away to see anything as small as the lander.
Parachutes work because the resistance of the atmosphere slows them down.The moon has no atmosphere to speak of, therefore it would not impede the progress of a parachute. it would simply fall like a brick..Because there is or no air on moon parachutes need air to work. in other words a parachute on the moon would fall as fast as a block of leadActually there is gravity on the moon, but there is no air to slow the parachute down, and so it wouldn't make any difference to the falling speed.Parachutes need an atmosphere to work by causing air drag. The moon haven't got enough atmosphere for that to happen.

It would be better to say that a parachute would be completely useless on the moon. The moon has no atmosphere so a parachute would not slow you down. And yes, you would need to slow down to land safely. The moon's gravity is weaker than Earth's but a high enough fall would still be lethal. Safely landing on an airless world like the moon requires firing a rocket to slow your descent.

A parachute requires air (or an atmosphere) to work. So the parachute would be useless and fall at the same rate as you. Depending on your height, you would probably sustain severe injury and die.
If we did not have the moon, there would be no waves.

The answer is in the question.An orbiter orbitsA lander lands.Basically an orbit will orbit the planet/moon while the lander lands on the surface.
