All of the Apollo missions leading up to the Apollo XI Moon landing on July 20, 1969, tested the equipment and procedures for the Apollo XI mission and those that followed it. However, the Mercury and Gemini missions also contributed to the overall knowledge concerning human spaceflight and various procedures (good and bad) that were ultimately used.
