During Apollo moon missions, in a very small way, the Earth did lose some mass during the Apollo missions, but the amount was tiny compared to Earth’s size.

When the Apollo spacecraft lifted off from the Moon to bring astronauts back, the engines used fuel carried all the way from Earth. That fuel was burned, and the exhaust gases were released into space. Since those gases did not return to Earth, they represent a very slight reduction in Earth’s total mass.

However, the numbers are almost negligible.

So while technically true, the Earth’s “weight loss” from Apollo fuel is far too small to matter in any measurable way.
