Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
The phenomenon of shadow formation is simple, whenever an opaque body blocks the path of the rays of light a shadow is formed. So the requirements of a shadow formation are light rays, an opaque object, and a surface or screen where the shadow is cast. The moon receives the light from the sun, astronauts and the surface of the moon can act as the screen so a shadow can form on the moon. A thing to note here is that light does not need any medium to travel, unlike sound. Light can travel in a vacuum as well.
