American human flight programs were; Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, Shuttle, the recently nixed Orion, and the up and coming SpaceX Falcon series. The last of which is the largest private space venture in history.
The first three space programs in the US were Project Mercury, Project Gemini, and Apollo program. These programs were instrumental in advancing human space exploration and culminated in the first human landing on the Moon during the Apollo missions.
NASA was still a young agency when Apollo was introduced. The first space program was Mercury, whose mission was to launch astronauts, one at a time, into space and then into orbit. Following Mercury was the Gemini program. Gemini spacecraft held two astronauts and saw was the first to really start with science and gear experiments. It was during Gemini that Ed White became the first American to perform an EVA (spacewalk). Apollo directly followed Gemini, and the Space Shuttle program followed Apollo.
The two US manned space programs that preceded Apollo were Mercury and Gemini. The Mercury program aimed to put a human in orbit around the Earth, while the Gemini program focused on developing the necessary skills and technologies for space travel to the Moon.
The first three space programs that contributed to the US moon landing were Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo. Mercury laid the groundwork for human spaceflight, Gemini focused on developing techniques for space travel, and Apollo successfully achieved the goal of landing astronauts on the moon.
