When did gorden cooper go to the moon?

Never. Gordon Cooper flew abard Faith 7, the final Mercury flight on May 15, 1963. On August 21, 1965, Cooper commanded Gemini 5 to a space endurance record of 8 days. Cooper's co-pilot on Gemini 5 was Pete Conrad who landed on the moon during Apollo 12. Gemini 5 flew 8 days because that was the minimun time it would take men to fly from the earth to the moon and back. Cooper was considered a hot shot be his superiors. He served on several back up crews, but was never promoted to flight crew after his Gemini 5 flight. He was in line to fly to the moon aboard Apollo 14, but was bumped off the flight by Alan Shepard, the first American in space. Cooper resigned from NASA following Shepard's assignment to Apollo 14.

Well, The crew that was supposed to go on Apollo 13 was Alan Sheppard's crew, but he got an ongoing ear infection so he and his crew got bumped. Afterwards, Jim Lovell and his crew (Fred Haise, and Ken Mattingly) were assigned for the Apollo 13 mission, but because the doctors thought Ken Mattingly was going to have the measles, he got bumped from the mission and was replaced with Jack Swigert. Hope this helps! :)


Why did the crew of Apollo 14 get bumped up to Apollo 13?

Alan Shepard and his crew was supposed to fly Apollo 13, but he got an ear infection close to the launch, so the crew of Apollo 14 were moved up a place allowing Alan Shepard to fly Apollo 14. The reason the whole crew switched was because they trained with each other and were put together to compliment each others skills.
