Well, he isn't, really. It's true that the effective gravity is only one-sixth that on Earth, but the weight and bulk of the space suit counteracts that. It wouldn't allow an astronaut to jump normally, for example. Plus, as sturdy as the space suits were, it would only take one fall to rip the suit and ruin your whole day.
The Moon walking astronauts did discover that it was possible, and fairly efficient, to hop with both feet at once, sort of like a kangaroo does. That was a lot faster than walking.

Why can an astronaut jump hogher on the moon than on earth?
An astronaut can jump higher on the Moon than on Earth due to the Moon's lower gravitational pull, which is about one-sixth that of Earth's. This reduced gravity means that the force pulling the astronaut back down is weaker, allowing them to ascend higher during a jump. Additionally, the lack of atmospheric resistance on the Moon further enhances their ability to jump higher compared to Earth.
If there is no gravity why can an astronaut jump up and down?
Depends on where the astronaut is.If you're thinking of the moon, then an astronaut can jump up and down because there is gravity on the moon. It's just not as strong as on earth, so the astronauts can jump higher and farther.If you're talking about in deep space, or aboard the international space station, then the astronauts are not really jumping. They are pushing off the floor or walls, and will keep flying in the direction they pushed until they hit something or grab on to something.
If a man could jump 6 feet on Earth how many inches high would he be able to jump on Jupiter?
With a stronger gravitational pull on Jupiter than on Earth, the man would be able to jump higher on Jupiter. On Jupiter, his jump would be approximately 18 feet high, which is equal to 216 inches.
If you can jump rope sixty times in one minute on earth how many times can you jump rope on the moon?
You would be able to jump rope more times on the moon due to its lower gravity compared to Earth. The moon's gravity is about one-sixth that of Earth's, so you could potentially jump rope around 6 times as much on the moon in one minute.
What would happen if gravity was weaker on earth?
People would be able to jump about 25 yards
Are objects lighter when the gravity is weaker?
One example is how light an astronaut weighed when standing on the moon. As there is very little gravity on the moon, the astronaut was able to jump much higher than he could back on earth.
How can you jump high?
become an astronaut and go to the moon
How does an astronaut jump high in the moon?
because in NASA they only allow people who can jump over 8ft to the moon

How do you jump on walls when im a wolf in wolf team?
jump or wall run? If you mean wall run, then just run up to the wall and jump at it while still holding the jump button, you will start to wall run... keep doing this and you will soon be able to do it easily. :D
How high can a astronaut jump on on mars surface?
You can certainly jump lower anywhere. That's as easy as a contest to see who can talk softer. But you can also jump higher on Mars, because the acceleration of gravity on its surface is only about 38% of what it is on Earth's surface.
Can elephans jump?
No elephant can jump. They are to big stupid. They are the only manmal to not be able to jump
Would you be able to jump on the moon?
you would be able to jump on the moon. the moon's gravity is 1/6 of earths gravity so there is a bit of gravit but not alot so you will be able to jump abit
Who sings the song with the lyrics Jump Around?
"I came to get down, I came to get down, So get out your seats and jump around, Jump around." 'Jump Around' by House of Pain (1992).
How high can the average elephant jump?
it can't jump it to much weaght
How far can a grasshopper jump?
A grasshopper can leap to about 20 inches, which is 20 times the length of its body. Some species are said to be able to jump even farther.
Will their ever be a game console when you can jump in the game?
Who knows, Maybe one day there will be hovercars floating around the street, So there is a chance that we will one day be able to jump right into our game, Its possible!
