Twelve Apollo astronauts

Moonwalkers are people who have walked on the moon—specifically, the twelve American astronauts who did so during the Apollo missions between 1969 and 1972: Only moonwalkers truly know what lunar gravity feels like.

The term can also refer to shoes or devices designed to assist walking, or to performers of the moonwalk dance move popularized by Michael Jackson.
