The following twelve people have walked on the Moon, each on one
mission only. Nobody has walked on the moon since 1972.
1. Neil Armstrong - Apollo 11 - July, 1969
2. Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin - Apollo 11 - July, 1969
3. Charles "Pete" Conrad - Apollo 12 - November, 1969
4. Alan Bean - Apollo 12 - November, 1969
5. Alan Shepard - Apollo 14 - February, 1971
6. Edgar Mitchell - Apollo 14 - February, 1971
7. David Scott - Apollo 15 - July, 1971
8. James Irwin - Apollo 15 - July, 1971
9. John Young - Apollo 16 - April, 1972 (see also Apollo 10)
10. Charles Duke - Apollo 16 - April, 1972
11. Gene Cernan - Apollo 17 - December, 1972 (see also Apollo 10)
12. Harrison Schmitt - Apollo 17 - December, 1972"
I am actually counting 26 astronauts who have been on or near the Moon. I come to this number from the following:
Apollo 8 times 3
Apollo 10 times 3
Apollo 11 times 3
Apollo 12 times 3
Apollo 13 times 3
Apollo 14 times 3
Apollo 15 times 3
Apollo 16 times 3
Apollo 17 times 3
total 27
subtract 1 as I believe James Lovell has been the only astronaut in
the vicinity of the moon twice (apollo 8 and 13)
Have a nice day

Mongolia,
Subtract 3 from 27. This gives 24, as mentioned in the quote above,
"Twenty-four astronauts have been on or near the Moon. Twelve of these
landed on the moon and actually walked on its surface."
In addition to Lovell, Astronauts John Young and Eugene Cernan also
served on two moon missions each.
