What were some of the experiments in Apollo 7?

The Apollo 7 experiments included tests of sextant calibration, attitude control, evaporator, navigation, rendezvous radar, thermal control system, and service module propulsion systems. Really the whole flight was an experiment as it was the first manned mission of the Apollo spacecraft.


How were Apollo rockets powered?

It really depends on which part of the Apollo spacecraft you're talking about. Different sections used different propellants.The first stage of the Saturn V, the S-1C section, burned RP-1 rocket fuel with LOX (liquid oxygen) as the oxidizer.The Saturn V S-II and S-IVB sections (2nd and 3rd stages) burned LOX and liquid hydrogen.The Apollo Command Module used unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH) fuel oxidized by dinitrogen tetroxide (N2O2) for RCS (reaction control system) thrustersThe Service Module used monomethylhydrazine (MMH) oxidized with N2O2 for its RCS attitude thrusters and (UDMH/N2H4) oxidized with N2O2 for the SPS (service propulsion system)The Lunar Module used Aerozine 50 for fuel and N2O4 as oxidizer for the RCS, DPS (descent propulsion) and APS (ascent propulsion) systems


Who was the captain of mission control in Apollo 13?

What is an Apollo spacecraft?

The Apollo spacecraft was a series of American space vehicles designed for the Apollo program, which aimed to land humans on the Moon and bring them safely back to Earth. It consisted of three main components: the Command Module where the crew resided, the Service Module which provided propulsion and life support, and the Lunar Module used for Moon landings. The Apollo spacecraft successfully landed humans on the Moon six times between 1969 and 1972.

Is Lunar Spacecraft capitalized?

The proper names of the Apollo Program's spacecraft, and as such should be capitalized, are: Apollo Command Module (abbreviated CM) Apollo Service Module (abbreviated SM) Apollo Lunar Module (abbreviated LM) Note that when the CM and SM are joined, they become a single spacecraft known as the Apollo Command/Service Module, or CSM.
