The only astronaunt that went to the moon twice is James Lovell. He was on the crew of both Apollo 8 and Apollo 13, and would have landed had they not had the mishap that wrecked the mission. He was fortunate to have returned to earth safely.

Actually Jim Lovell was NOT the only astronaut to go to the moon twice - there were two others!

- John Young went twice - as CM pilot on Apollo 10 and as commander of Apollo 16.

- Gene Cernan also went twice - as LM pilot on Apollo 10 and as commander of Apollo 17.

The astronaut is Mr James Lovell, he was in Apollo 8 with Frank Borman and William Anders and also Apollo13 with Fred Haise and Jack Swigert. Apollo 8 was the first spacecraft to orbit the moon and return, and Apollo 13 blew up in the side so it did not land on the moon.

Jim Lovell and John Young each had 2 trips. Lovell flew on Apollos 8 and 13; Young flew on Apollos 10 and 16. However, John Young was the only one of the two who actually got to WALK on the moon on Apollo 16.
