They left behind a plaque, five gold medals, a U.S. Flag and science equipment on the moon.
Micheal Collins was left behind on Apollo 11.
A number of items were left behind after every mission. They left behind trash, their PLiSS's (personal life support system, aka the backpack), science equipment (the Apollo 11 science package was called the EASEP, Early Apollo Scientific Experiment Package, future missions left behind an ALSEP, Apollo Lunar Surface Experiment Package), American Flags, the Descent Stages (the legs) of the Landing Modules, and some personal items which many astronauts have kept to themselves. Apollo's 15, 16, and 17 also left behind the Lunar Rovers.

Compared to the Space Shuttle Orbiter, relatively very little of the Apollo spacecraft returned to earth. Typically, just the Command Module came back to earth. With Apollo 13, the Lunar Module came back to earth, as it was used as a lifeboat for the three astronauts, until just before reentry. Typically, the Lunar Module was left to crash into the moon after it was used. The only other Lunar Module that made it back to earth (to burn up in the atmosphere) was the one used on Apollo 9, which was a Low-Earth Orbit mission.

He left the earth in the Apollo 11 on 16/7/1969.
Apollo 11 found rocks and soil samples on the moon which were brought back to Earth for study. The mission also installed scientific instruments and set up experiments to collect data on the lunar surface. Additionally, the crew left behind a plaque that commemorated the historic landing.
Yes, Apollo 16 astronauts left behind scientific instruments including a lunar observatory called the Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package (ALSEP). They also left the Lunar Module Ascent Stage (LM) on the moon's surface before returning to Earth.
The Apollo 11 lunar module ascent stage crashed on the moon, sometime before November 1969. It's location ion the moon s unknown.
Here a few things will have to be taken into account, the power of the telescope, the place, brightness,time and a few things as well.
The Apollo 11 mission left behind a variety of equipment on the moon, including the Lunar Module "Eagle," the American flag, scientific instruments, and a plaque commemorating the historic landing. The astronauts also left behind their descent stage on the moon's surface.
No, and he never returned to space again either. He left NASA soon after the moon landing Apollo 11 mission.
