Humanoid robots are expected to play a major role in the future of space and planetary exploration. robot features could have many advantages, such as interacting with astronauts ability perform human tasks. However, challenge developing is quite high due difficulties. One main difficulties difference gravity. Most researchers field bipedal locomotion not paid much attention effect Gravity an important parameter generating trajectory. This research investigates gravity on walking motion. It focuses low gravity, since most known planets moons lower than earth. Further study conducted full humanoid model subject moon's approach for dealing moon proposed this paper.
