How many people have flown around the moon without landing?

It depends on the exact interpretation of the words in the question. 15 such flights have been made Three-man Apollo 8 crew Three-man Apollo 10 crew Three-man Apollo 13 crew Six individual flights by command module pilots on Apollos 11, 12, 14, 15, 16 and 17 However, Jim Lovell counts for two of those (Apollos 8 and 13), while John Young and Eugene Cernan of Apollo 10 both later landed on Apollos 16 and 17 respectively. Thus 15 such flights have been made by 14 astronauts, of whom two landed on the moon on later missions. Thus there are two possible answers: 14 people have made a trip to the moon which did not involve their landing on it. 12 people have made a trip to the moon without ever landing on it.
