As a juggler, I will say that in theory it should be easier to juggle on the moon. There are physical simulators that should show how much easier it would be, theoretically. Here is a link to one:

Having taught people to juggle, I would have to say that being on the moon would matter less for a person learning to juggle. When learning to juggle, it always comes down to making yourself let go of that third ball, so the key part of three ball juggling has nothing to do with a ball in flight but one clenched in your unopened fist. From trying to learn to juggle three balls with one hand, I am also reminded that it is more a matter of when I throw each balls rather than how high they go or how long it takes them to fall back.
For past astronauts it would have been a nightmare, no room in the landing craft and one bad drop could ruin valuable equipment, and when you went outside you had gloves like oven mitts to deal with.

Would it be easier to lift a truck on the moon or on the earth?
It would be much easier to lift a truck on the moon because there is no gravity out in space, so it would be simpler and not as heavy.
Would a rocket leaving the moon surface require as great a speed or force as one leaving the earth surface?
No. There is less gravity on the moon, therefore the rocket would feel less of a pull towards it than the earth. It would be easier to leave the moon than the earth.
How would weightlifting be different on the moon then earth?
Wow. There is less gravity on the moon so inturn that makes it easier to lift weights.
Why is thermal escape of atmospheric gas much easier from the Moon than from Earth?
Because the Moon's gravity is so much weaker than Earth's.
What is the eclipse called when the moon is behind earth?
First the order is |Sun : Moon : Earth| and when the Moon is behind the Earth it is |Sun : Earth : Moon|, which would be a Lunar Eclipse.

Is it easier to observe the stars from earth or moon?
it depends on what time of year it is and which stars you want to view seeing as it is hard to get a strong telescope to the moon... i would say Earth

Is it easier to catch a butterfly on the earth or moon?
On moon because its dead
Why would it be easier to launch a spaceship from the moon if you wanted to get to Uranus?
In the narrow sense, it would be easier to launch a spaceship from the moon because the gravity is much lower. In practice, the moon has few resources so the spacecraft and fuel would have to come from the Earth in the first place.
Would it be easier to lift a huge truck on earth or on the moon?
The weight of any given mass is about 16.5% on the moon compared to its weight on Earth. So, for example, an object that weighs a ton (2,000 pounds) on Earth would weigh about 331 pounds on the moon. A machine built to lift huge trucks would need only 16.5% of the force to do the job on the moon, compared to the force it would require on Earth.
How would you manage the lack of the gravity on the moon?
The moon does have gravity, it is just a fraction of what it is on Earth. Astronauts on the moon have found that the low gravity makes it difficult to walk. It is easier to move by jumping.
How will the Earth rotate without moon?
The Earth's rotation is not dependent on the Moon; without the Moon, the Earth would still rotate. However, the Moon's gravitation gradually slows down Earth's rotation, so without the Moon, it is possible that Earth would now be rotating faster.The Earth's rotation is not dependent on the Moon; without the Moon, the Earth would still rotate.

What if the moon was bigger than earth?
If the moon was bigger than the Earth, than Earth would orbit it and, by our current definitions, it would be a moon.
Why is thermal escape of atmospheric gas much easier from the Moon than from Earth?
Because the Moon's gravity is so much weaker than Earth's.
Would it be harder to land a spaceship on the moon than Earth?
It depends. Objects on the Moon weigh 1/6 of what they weigh on Earth , but the Moon has a rougher surface and the spacecraft cannot be closely monitored by chase planes or easily by people in a control room. It's also much easier and cheaper to send a spacecraft into orbit and land on Earth than the Moon, and costs less. In addition it depends on what kind spacecraft; it's easier to land a space-plane like design (such as a space shuttle) on Earth. A Lunar lander, such as the Apollo would be more suited to land on the Moon.
