By "spaceships", it is assumed that you are referring to vehicles used to transport through space. There are rumors of many secret Soviet spaceflights, and many such fatal ones, so the exact number is unknown. Here is a list of the known crashes of spacecraft:

1967 - Soviet. Soyuz 1. Failed parachute deployment. 1 fatality.

1967 - American. X-15 Flight 191. Control failure. 1 fatality.

1969 - Soviet. Soyuz 5. Crash-landed in Ural mountains. No fatalities.

1971 - Soviet. Soyuz 11. Depressurization. 3 fatalities. Craft soft-landed, so technically not a "crash."

1975 - Soviet. Soyuz 18. Launch failure after rockets failed to separate. No fatalities.

1976 - Soviet. Soyuz 23. Punched through frozen lake. No fatalities.

1986 - American. Space Shuttle Challenger. Explosion. Enough of the craft survived to crash into the ocean. 7 fatalities.

2003 - American. Space Shuttle Columbia. Explosion. Debris scattered across several states. 7 fatalities.

2008 - Soyuz TMA-11. Crash-landed. No fatalities.

The Space Shuttle is incapable of traveling to the moon. The only manned spacecraft to travel to the moon was the Apollo spacecraft, which flew 9 lunar missions in the late 1960s and early 70s. Of these lunar missions, 6 successfully landed on the moon. Since Apollo 17 in 1972, no humans have visited the moon. The Apollo spacecraft, however, took about three days to reach the moon.
