Apollo 11's space crafts name was the CM- Columbia; LM- Eagle with Neil A. Armstrong, Michael Collins and Edwin E. "Buzz" Aldrin.
The mini-series "From the Earth to the Moon" detailed the missions of the Apollo spacecraft, specifically focusing on the Apollo program that aimed to send astronauts to the Moon.
The first missions to the moon, including the Apollo missions, used the Saturn V rocket to launch the spacecraft, and the Apollo spacecraft itself to transport astronauts to and from the moon.
The American spacecraft used to travel to the moon were called Apollo spacecraft. Specifically, the Apollo program was responsible for sending astronauts to the moon between 1969 and 1972.
Some spacecraft that have successfully landed on the moon include the Apollo lunar modules from the Apollo missions, the Soviet Luna landers, and the Chinese Chang'e landers. These missions have provided valuable data and samples from the lunar surface.
The Apollo spacecraft took of from Cape Kennedy.

Apollo is the name of the American spacecraft and Soyuz is the name of the Russian spacecraft.

The Apollo 7 spacecraft flew to test the Apollo spacecraft after the first one burnt i a fire. And astronauts Virgil grissim, edward White and roger Chaffee died.
The name of America's three-man spacecraft was the Gemini spacecraft. It was part of NASA's Gemini program, which ran from 1962 to 1966 and aimed to develop space travel techniques and conduct missions that would pave the way for future Apollo missions. The Gemini spacecraft was instrumental in advancing space rendezvous and docking capabilities.
The spacecraft that was the first to take people to the moon's surface was the Apollo Lunar Module, part of the Apollo spacecraft used during the Apollo missions by NASA. The Lunar Module carried astronauts to and from the lunar surface during the Apollo program in the 1960s and 1970s.
There were 5 unmanned missions following the ill-fated Apollo 1 disaster. After that, there were 2 earth orbital missions (Apollo 7 & Apollo 9), and 9 lunar missions (Apollo 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17). There were 3 long duration earth orbital missions after Apollo 17 that used the Apollo hardware and spacecraft. Skylab 1 was the workshop itself where the astronauts lived for months at a time. Skylab 2 lasted 28 days, Skylab 3 lasted 56 days and Skylab 4 lasted 84 days in space. The last mission to use Apollo spacecraft was the first joint mission with the Soviet Union. An American Apollo docked with a Soviet Soyuz spacecraft. The 2 vehicles stayed docked for 44 hours before parting ways. The last Apollo spacecraft splashed down on July 24, 1975. So total there were 19 "Apollo" missions. 13 manned missions and 6 unmanned.
Not all spacecraft are called Apollo; "Apollo" specifically refers to the series of missions conducted by NASA from 1961 to 1972 aimed at landing humans on the Moon. The name Apollo was chosen to symbolize the god of light and knowledge, reflecting the ambitious goals of the program. Other spacecraft, such as the Space Shuttle, Voyager, and Mars rovers, have different names based on their unique missions and designs. The Apollo program is iconic, particularly for its historic Moon landings, which is why the name is often associated with space exploration.
