Was the Apollo 6 mission successful?

While technically successful (all the Apollo missions except 1 and 13 were successful), Apollo 6 was not an actual flight. After Apollo 1, all missions until 7 were hardware test flights and were not officially numbered. Manned flights go from 1 (which was lost to fire) directly to Apollo 7, which saw three men orbit the Earth in the Command Module.


How many survivors where there in the Apollo 13?

There were no casualties on Apollo 13. So there were 3 survivors, which was everybody on the spacecraft.


What are the names of the Apollo missions?

Some notable Apollo missions include Apollo 11 (first successful moon landing), Apollo 13 (mission that experienced an oxygen tank explosion), and Apollo 17 (final manned moon landing mission). There were a total of 17 Apollo missions.


Which Apollo failed the mission?

Apollo 13 had an explosion in the Service Module, forcing them to abort the moon landing, however Mission Control and the crew of Apollo 13 worked very hard and returned the spacecraft back to Earth, becoming NASA's most "successful failure"


What Apollo exploded in space?

Apollo 13 experienced an explosion onboard while in space on April 13, 1970. The explosion was the result of a damaged oxygen tank, which caused a loss of electrical power and compromised the spacecraft's ability to return to Earth. The crew, with the help of mission control, managed to safely navigate back to Earth in a dramatic and successful mission known as a "successful failure."

Well, it kept its crew alive... job 1! But it did not land them on the Moon, so I wouldn't call the trip successful.
