Until something disturbs it, like a future meteor impact, or a future moon landing. The footprints left by the astronauts may last millions of years.
There is no air or water on the moon, therefore nothing to erase it.
To make a footprint on the moon, you would need to visit the moon's surface wearing special space suits that allow you to walk on the lunar terrain. The lack of atmosphere on the moon means that footprints can last for a very long time due to the absence of wind and erosion. The Apollo astronauts made footprints on the moon during their missions in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
Depending on the environment, it may be possible for a footprint to last more than 30 years. If an environment is exposed to consistent changes and elements, such as rain, wind, etc., then it is just about impossible for a footprint to last that long. In an environment where virtually no elements are present, in a cave for instance, then it could be possible for a footprint to last that long.
Yeah probably I think...
We can't be absolutely sure how long a footprint will last on the moon since it might or might not be struck by a meteoroid or other cosmic debris, but potentially it could last for billions of years. It is also possible (although I am not expecting it) that the moon will someday be colonized by people, who will then disturb the existing footprints. But then again, they might want to preserve them as monuments.

You might mean on the moon. There is no wind or rain to erode the footprint on the moon, that's why it can last up to billions of years.

I think it's forever or millions of years
because there is no air to blow it away and nothing to cover or disturb it
a footprint
Due to there being no wind on the moon, as there is no atmosphere, it can be safe to assume that a footprint on the moon would look like a normal footprint, but wouldn't be affected by wind or rain. Therefore it would stay around indefinately. Basicly, its just a perpetualy fresh footprint.
Only if it were to be disturbed my a meteorite impact, otherwise it will last until the moon is destroyed, along with the Earth, when the sun expands and swallows both.
The 12 Apollo astronauts have left their footprints on the moon.
it doesn't, there is no wind
Yeah probably I think...
