What was the impact of the first man on the moon?

This is important simply because it is a very important milestone in human development, the first time any human ever set foot on any celestial body besides Earth. Also it was a matter of pride; many developed countries were in a space race at the time and the US had been beaten for first into space, and so won back some credit by being the first onto the moon.

How did the astronaut keep from floating away on the moon?

There isn't much gravity in empty space, but there is a great deal of gravity near planets, stars, moons and other celestial bodies. The moon has gravity because it has mass. Everything with mass has gravity (including you, albeit a VERY small amount). That's how the astronauts stayed on the moon, and the reason why their movements were slow because the moon has about 1/6 the amount of gravity as Earth.

US astronaut Neil Armstrong was the first man to set foot on the Moon, on July 20, 1969. Armstrong and his fellow Apollo 11 astronaut Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin were the first men to land on the Moon.
The first man to walk on the Moon was American astronaut Neil Armstrong (1930- 2012).

He accomplished this feat on July 20, 1969, becoming the first human from Earth to do so.

The time in the USA was 10.56 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time.

Because EDT was 4 hours behind GMT (or UTC as it would be now) the Moon walk started on July 21st according to GMT.

Armstrong exited the "lunar module", a small spacecraft that had separated from the main spaceship Apollo 11, and took his first steps on the Moon. He was accompanied by astronaut Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin Jr. (1930- ).

As he set foot on the Moon's surface, Armstrong spoke the historic words, "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." (The live voice transmission had dropped the "a" before "man," but it was added later.) Armstrong fulfilled the goal of U.S. President John F. Kennedy (1917-1963), who had announced on November 25, 1961, that the United States would land a man on the Moon before the end of the decade.
