When did Apollo space ship go to the moon?
Apollo 11 landed there in 1969, but other Apollo missions orbited it before that. Apollo 8 was the first manned mission to the moon, and the astronauts participating orbited the moon but did not land on it.
Why did Apollo missions stop going to the moon?
Because they learned a lession from Apollo 13 which had exploded!
How many manned space missions did not make it?
The only Apollo missions that were designed to go to the moon were Apollo 8,10,11,12,13,14,15,16and 17. The others were test missions or missions within earth's own orbit. They all reached the moon without exception. Apollo 8 and 10 were designed to reach the moon, but not to land. Instead their mission was to test equipment and to search out possible landing sites. They were successful in this. Apollo 13 was designed to land on the moon, but because of an explosion on board, was unable to land. Instead it reached the moon and used the moon's gravity to perform a 'slingshot' manoever and return to earth in an emergency rescue. The rest of the Apollo missions (11,12,14,15,16,17) all landed on the moon as planned.
Is Apollo 18 based on a real mission?
kinnda, the Apollo missions did exist ( moon landing) and they ended at Apollo 17. they ended because they were VERY expensive and were risky. there was no Apollo 18 sadly. ( it would be fun to go to the moon again!)
How many times NASA go to moon?
There were 17 Apollo missions altogether, although not all of these went to the moon. Many were simply test missions, some unmanned, and some in earth orbit only. Of the missions that went to the moon, Apollo 8 was the first mission to reach the moon, orbit it and return, followed by the next mission to the moon, Apollo 10. However both these missions were not designed to land on the moon's surface but were designed to test the equipment and to look for suitable landing sites. Apollo 13 also reached the moon, but, because of an explosion on board, was not able to land but returned to earth having made a 'free return trajectory' around the moon. The missions that actually landed on the moon were Apollo 11 (the first) followed by 12, 14, 15, 16 and 17 after which the Apollo programme was cancelled. So the number of mission to the moon in the Apollo programme was 9 missions, six of which made a landing, meaning that 12 astronauts in total have walked on the moon's surface to date.
What missions have not reached the moon?
Apollo 13, Apollo 1, Apollo 8, Apollo 10 and maybe some other ones. But missions Apollo 8 and Apollo 10 weren't planned to go to the moon. They were just preparing for Apollo 11.

How long did it take for Apollo missions to go to the moon?
It took roughly 3 days to go to the moon and another 3 days to return from the moon.

Why man didn't go to the moon after 1975?
As money was tight they cut the number of moon missions to 17 when there were actually 20 Apollo moon missions planned.Apollo 13 cut their budget .

Did any women go on moon and hear anything?
No. Only men have landed on the moon during the Apollo moon missions between 1969 and 1972.

HoW often does NASA go to the moon?
There were 6 Apollo missions which successfully landed astronauts on the moon. Between July 1969 and December 1972. See related link. Apollo 13 (April 1970) had a malfunction and was unable to land on the moon. See related link.
Time to get to the moon via the shuttle?
The shuttle doesn't go to the moon. It's built for missions in "low earth orbit", typically 200-300 miles above the surface. The most recent manned spacecraft built to go to the moon, was the Apollo vehicle. Those missions took 3 days to get there, and 3 days to get back. The last Apollo mission flew in 1972. There hasn't been a manned mission to the moon in the 38 years since then, and none is currently in planning.
Did we really go to the moon?
Yes. In the years 1969-1972 NASA launched six successful manned missions to the moon as part of the Apollo program.
