Which part of the Apollo spacecraft came back?
Compared to the Space Shuttle Orbiter, relatively very little of the Apollo spacecraft returned to earth. Typically, just the Command Module came back to earth. With Apollo 13, the Lunar Module came back to earth, as it was used as a lifeboat for the three astronauts, until just before reentry. Typically, the Lunar Module was left to crash into the moon after it was used. The only other Lunar Module that made it back to earth (to burn up in the atmosphere) was the one used on Apollo 9, which was a Low-Earth Orbit mission.
