Who did Neil Armstrong cut in front of for space mission?
Neil Armstrong didn't "cut in front of" anyone for either of his space missions, Apollo 11 or his lesser-known first space flight, Gemini VIII. Apollo crews were assigned by the head of the astronaut office, Deke Slayton - himself an astronaut who had been grounded by a heart condition. Slayton set up a standard rotation whereby a crew that had been backup for one Apollo mission became the prime flight crew three missions later. Armstrong had been backup commander for the Apollo 8 mission, so by the normal crew rotation he became the prime commander of the Apollo 11 mission. Buzz Aldrin had been backup Command Module Pilot for Apollo 8, so he was also in the regular rotation for Apollo 11. Michael Collins, Command Module Pilot on Apollo 11, had originally been scheduled to fly on Apollo 8 but was replaced by Jim Lovell due to surgery. So he was given the opportunity to fly on Apollo 11.

The astronauts were within a few hours of running out of oxygen when they landed in the Pacific Ocean 3 days after the explosion.
Who was the first ever astronaut that flew to the moon?
The only astronaunt that went to the moon twice is James Lovell. He was on the crew of both Apollo 8 and Apollo 13, and would have landed had they not had the mishap that wrecked the mission. He was fortunate to have returned to earth safely. Actually Jim Lovell was NOT the only astronaut to go to the moon twice - there were two others! - John Young went twice - as CM pilot on Apollo 10 and as commander of Apollo 16. - Gene Cernan also went twice - as LM pilot on Apollo 10 and as commander of Apollo 17.
What astronout did not fly the Apollo 13?
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! :)
What space shuttle was used to first fly to the moon?
