How many people flew in Apollo 12?

Each Apollo mission carried 3 crew members.


Who was the crew of Apollo 3?

Apollo 3 was a test flight so it did not have any crew at all.


Who were the Apollo 16 crew members?

There were 3. john w. Young, Tohamas K. Mattinglly and Charels M. Duke Jr.


Why was there only 3 people on Apollo 11?

All Apollo missions had a crew size of 3. The crew size of any spacecraft is limited by weight. The larger the crew the larger the craft needs to be and the larger the amount of consumables carried into space to keep the crew alive while off the earth must be. Eventually the weight of the spacefraft will be greater than the rocket lifting it off the Earth (or whatever planet it happens to be on) can handle. For the Apollo missions, the maximum crew size was 3.


What happened to the Apollo 2?

The first three missions of the Apollo Program were unmanned test flights of Apollo hardware. These missions were officially named AS-201, AS-202, and AS-203. The first manned mission was named AS-204. However AS-204 met with disaster, when fire broke out during a routine ground test and all three crew members were killed. The widows of the three astronauts asked NASA to retire the mission naming convention in honor of their husbands. NASA agreed, and AS-204 was renamed Apollo 1. NASA then made the decision that further missions would begin with Apollo 4. It is my pure speculation that the names 2 and 3 were skipped in honor of the Apollo 1 crew. Since there were three astronauts killed, Apollos 1, 2, and 3 were retired in their memory. As such, the next flight was named Apollo 4, so there was no official Apollo 2.
