A helicopter is an aircraft that is lifted and propelled by one or more horizontal rotors, each rotor consisting of two or more rotor blades. Helicopters are classified as rotorcraft or rotary-wing aircraft to distinguish them from fixed-wing aircraft because the helicopter achieves lift with the rotor blades which rotate around a mast.
A helicopter takes off vertically by using a set of blades shaped like aerofoils to generate lift by rotating the blades at high speed and as such does not require runways

Can a helicopter take off from the moon?
No, a helicopter cannot take off from the moon because there is no atmosphere on the moon to generate lift for the helicopter's rotor blades. Helicopters require air to push down against to lift off the ground, and since the moon has no atmosphere, a helicopter would not be able to take off.
How much Time it takes for a helicopter to take off?
time for an helicopter to takeoff varies on types and model of the helicopter it self. this is because every helicopter or aircraft have their own check list provided by the manufacturer or operator depending on operation. this check list is for the pilot to go through during start up, taxing, take off, approaching and landings. again, time for each machine to take off varies.

No, a helicopter cannot take off from the moon because there is no atmosphere to generate lift for the rotor blades to work. Helicopters rely on air density to generate lift, and the lack of atmosphere on the moon makes it impossible for a helicopter to fly.
