Apollo 8 was the first manned Apollo to actually reach the moon, but it was never the intention to land but only to test out equipment and to do a 'dry run'. After orbiting the moon it returned to earth. Apollo 10 was the next to go to the moon, again to orbit the moon only and to look for landing sites. Apollo 11 was the first mission to land on the moon with Neil Armstrong being the first man to set foot on the moon. There were six further Apollo missions: 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17. Apollo 13 never landed on the moon as there was an explosion on the way there diabling the spaceship. The three astronauts (captained by Jim Lovell who also flew on Apollo 8) returned safely to earth after a nailbiting rescue mission. All the other Apollo missions landed on the moon and were very successful. A further three Apollo missions were planned (18, 19 20) but never took place because of government cuts in the space programme.
