Answer:

Why do astronauts appear to bounce when they are on the moon? Well there is a simple explanation. Gravity. The moon has 80 times less mass than Earth and the moon's gravity is about 1/4 as strong as the earth's gravity. So when astronauts “walk” on the Moon, it appears as bouncing or hopping because of the lack of gravity humans are used to.

Answer:The moon's gravity is about 1/4 as strong as the earth's gravity. Our muscles a built to carry us on the earth. The astronauts are used to walking on earth so when they push forward with their legs they tend to use the same amount of energy which is 4 times more than needed.

Anni [7]

Los primeros homínidos abandonaron los árboles y comenzaron a caminar erguidos y sobre sus dos pies hace al menos 3,6 millones de años, tal y como confirmó un estudio difundido el viernes por la revista PLoS ONE. Según científicos de tres universidades estadounidenses, se creía que hasta entonces esos homínidos no eran bípedos y que pasaban la mayor parte de su vida en los árboles. A finales de la década de 1960 un grupo de científicos descubrió en Laetoli, Tanzania, marcas de pisadas de homínidos preservadas en cenizas volcánicas desde hacía unos 3,6 millones de años. Las marcas de esas pisadas habrían sido dejadas por miembros del grupo homínido Australopithecus afarensis. Esa especie incluye a 'Lucy', cuyo esqueleto fosilizado es el más completo de un Australopithecus encontrado hasta ahora.
