Were neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin in astudio or did they really go to the moon?
Buzz Aldrin took a photo of the earth while he was on the moon. You can't take that photo on earth. They went to the moon.
What is the Nickname of second man on the moon?
At exactly the same time as the first guy. The first landing was July 20, 1969 at 20:17:39 UTC. Neil Armstrong was the first to actually step on the moon, but he was followed a very short time later by the other crewmember of the Eagle, Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin Jr.
Did Michael Collins stay in the rocket?
"Stay in the rocket" is kind of ambiguous, since in the stage of the mission where Collins was separated from Armstrong and Aldrin both pieces of the spacecraft had rockets attached to them. To be perfectly clear, what happened was that Collins remained in the command module in orbit around the Moon while Armstrong and Aldrin entered the lunar module and descended to the surface. Armstrong and Aldrin then later took off (using the rockets in the lunar module) and re-docked the lunar module to the command module for the return trip to Earth.
Did Michael Collins just stay in the rocket whilst Edwin Aldrin and Neil Armstrong stepped foot on the moon?
The rocket, called the 'command module', that was carrying the three astronauts to the moon was also carrying a 'lunar module' which was the craft that was to land on the moon. Once the command module was orbiting the moon, Armstrong and Aldrin entered the lunar module, separated it from the command module, and flew down to the moon while Collins piloted the command module around the moon. When it was time to leave the moon, Armstrong and Aldrin blasted off in the lunar module and flew to meet Collins in the command module where they hooked back up. Armstrong and Aldrin then left the lunar module and entered the command module. The lunar module was then jettisoned from the command module, to eventually crash into the moon, and the three made their way back to Earth in the command module.
What aircraft did Neil Armstrong go to the moon in?
It was a 'spacecraft' and not an 'aircraft'! He travelled with Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins in Apollo 11. ===================================== The three of them lived in the Apollo 11 "Command Module" for the long ride in both directions between the earth and the moon. Armstrong and Aldrin descended to the moon's surface in the 'LEM' or Lunar Excursion Module, while Collins continued to orbit the moon alone in the Command Module. It all happened in July of 1969.

Edwin "buzz" Aldrin and Michael Collins. Aldrin walked on the moon while Collins stayed on board and took pictures as well as communicating with Earth.

Astronaut Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin Became the first people to walk on the moon and return safely to Earth. Micheal Collins was the Command Module Pilot for the Apollo 11 crew. Althought he never walk on the moon, he did orbit the moon alone while Armstrong and Aldrin were performing their EVA.
How many year did Niel Armstrong flight to the moon?
Neil Armstrong flew to the moon in July 1969 with crew mates Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins onboard the Apollo 11 spacecraft. Launching from Earth on July 16th, the Lunar Module landed on the moon on July 20th enabling Armstrong and Aldrin to become the first humans to visit another world. The Command Module returned to Earth on July 24th when it splashed down in the Pacific Ocean.

Did anyone go with Neil Armstrong up to the moon?
Yes. Edwin Aldrin and Michael Collins both accompanied Armstrong on the 3-day trip from the Earth to the Moon. When it came time to land on the moon, though, only Aldrin and Armstrong descended to the lunar surface and walked around on it. Collins decided to stay in the Apollo Command Module, orbiting the Moon, until the other two finished their business on the Moon and returned to the Command Module. Then they all flew back to Earth together.
Did neil Armstrong and edwin Aldrin able to get back to earth?
Well, you see, during all of the years that the design and development project was going on to take men to the moon, there was also a similar design and development project going on with the purpose of bringing them back. When it was time to launch Apollo 11, they put it all together, and launched three astronauts toward the moon ... don't forget Michael Collins. He went into orbit around the moon with Armstrong and Aldrin, but he didn't descend to the lunar surface with them. Armstrong and Aldrin dropped down to the surface of the moon, stayed there for a while, then came back to orbit, joined up with Collins again, and all three of them returned to Earth. They all lived happily ever after, and 42 years later, in mid-2011, they're all alive and well. Every Apollo astronaut who was launched and got as far as Earth-orbit returned safely to Earth, including all of the ones who walked on the moon.
Who was thr first person to travel in Apollo 11?
The Apollo 11 mission was crewed by Neil Armstrong, Edwin Aldrin, and Michael Collins. All three were sealed in the Command Module when it was launched. All three of them entered lunar orbit, Armstrong and Aldrin spent some time on the lunar surface, and all three then returned to earth together.
