IIRC Aldrin (maybe Armstrong) remarked on the difficulties of gauging perspective, both due to absence of familiar types of natural features and landmarks, but also due to the absence of an atmosphere itself playing a role in distorting perception, during the official Apollo 11 after-conference.

David Scott and Gene Cernan had the most fun of anybody, I think, although Schmitt was quite tickled to be there too.

-12 had a rootin' tootin' crew with great camaraderie. The good morale of their crew/ability to have a bit more fun with the event than their predecessors, are a stark contrast with how Apollo 11 had to go down (compare the PDI to touchdown videos of the two, the voices are night and day).

-14 had a hard slog hauling crap by themselves, fulfilling the landing not done by 13. Basically they had to haul crap and didn't have a moon buggy yet. The golfing was just a meme at the end, the real cool shit was just to come.

-15 is where it really goes off the hook. Moon buggy, cool terrain, Scott talks them into a stand-up EVA to scout ahead of time, and Worden gets the consolation prize of being the first human to perform a deep-space EVA. So much was going on that there's a separate wiki on the lunar exploration itself:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_15_operations_on_the_Lunar_surface

-The plains of 16 are comparatively dull, though John Young always livens the proceedings.

-17 had about as much going on as 15, these two were really the peak of the whole thing. The CM even kept five mice aboard to keep Ron Evans company, and the survivors (one died during the mission, an ill omen) were promptly killed For Science™ upon their return.

Six missions landed on the Moon: Apollo 11 through Apollo 17 excluding Apollo 13, which was forced to abandon plans for landing when their spacecraft was crippled by an explosion in the service module.

Each successful landing worked as follows: the complete lunar module touched down on the Moon's surface with a two-man crew, the astronauts stayed put and did moonwalks (and moondrives, and moongolfing, and moonhammerthrowing) for a day or three, and when they were all done, they took off in the lunar module's ascent stage, which separated from the (spent) descent stage and flew back into orbit to rendezvous with the orbiting Command module. Finally, the ascent stage was cast off, its purpose fulfilled, and entered a decaying orbit until finally it crashed somewhere on the Moon.

Each successful landing included one or more Extra Vehicular Activity (EVAs) during which both Astronauts walked on the Moon. Apollo 11 had just one (make the history, proof of concept), Apollo 12 and Apollo 14 each had two (a shorter, ceremonial/experiment setup walk, and a later exploratory walk), and Apollo 15, 16 and 17 each had three walks (set up the lunar rover and experiments, use the Rover to explore in three different directions and cover much more ground). A given mission's EVAs were simply referred to individually as EVA-1, EVA-2 or EVA-3 as needed. Since two men walked in each case, you can count up 2(1+2+2+3+3+3) = 28 individual instances or episodes of a person walking around on the Moon. See the chart in >>11024882 for details (which includes all the other EVAs of the Apollo program).

An excellent quick animation on the entire flight profile is given from 30:22 - 32:52 below. If you pay close attention you can see that there's really ten major components which detach (or re-dock in a few cases) over the course of a mission.

The good news is now we know you only need pressure on the body, not air pressure so next gen suits will be compression fabric rather than ballons.
These suits could only be worn for a few hours but that is enough for the vast majority of what humanity is going to be doing in space for the next few decades.

Fate has ordained that the men who went to the moon to explore in peace will stay on the moon to rest in peace.
These brave men, Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin, know that there is no hope for their recovery. But they also know that there is hope for mankind in their sacrifice.
These two men are laying down their lives in mankind's most noble goal: the search for truth and understanding.
They will be mourned by their families and friends; they will be mourned by the nation; they will be mourned by the people of the world; they will be mourned by a Mother Earth that dared send two of her sons into the unknown.
In their exploration, they stirred the people of the world to feel as one; in their sacrifice, they bind more tightly the brotherhood of man.
In ancient days, men looked at the stars and saw their heroes in the constellations. In modern times, we do much the same, but our heroes are epic men of flesh and blood.
Others will follow, and surely find their way home. Man's search will not be denied. But these men were the first, and they will remain the foremost in our hearts.
For every human being who looks up at the moon in the nights to come will know that there is some corner of another world that is forever mankind.

Whaaa? Really? So between the skin and the fabric there's no air? How do they keep the air from the respiratory areas from leaking in the rest of the suit and causing ti to balloon? Ive gotta read up on this.

Because of the time crunch Saturn wasn't fully documented with many of the engineers taking design info to their graves, on top of that all the tooling was sold for scrap.
If Saturn was properly documented and all tooling kept it could be built again today but that just isn't the case.
On the bright side we will see man return to the moon with much better scientific equipment and if we can delay a major war or economic collapse a few more decades should see man on Mars.
