The maximum speed reached by a manned spacecraft was during the Apollo 10 mission in 1969, when the spacecraft reached a speed of about 24,791 mph (39,897 km/h) relative to Earth. This speed was necessary to escape Earth's gravity and travel to the Moon.
The first US manned spacecraft was named Mercury.
The first manned spacecraft to orbit the moon was Apollo 8, which launched on December 21, 1968. It was the second manned mission in the Apollo program and made ten orbits around the moon before returning safely to Earth.
Manned spacecraft are designed to carry humans on board, while unmanned spacecraft do not have human crew members and are controlled remotely or autonomously. Manned spacecraft require life support systems and provisions for crew safety, while unmanned spacecraft can be smaller and more specialized for scientific missions.
Manned spacecraft are very useful because it is easier to see and do things first hand than relying on only readouts from machines and senors.
Each Apollo mission that delivered a command module to the vicinity of the moon, whether or not there was a lunar landing, took about 3 days to get there and 3 days to return to earth.
As of yet, there have been no manned Mars spacecraft at all.

Yes Neil Armstrong was on both the Gemini spacecraft as well as the Apollo 11 spacecraft.
Each Apollo mission that delivered a command module to the vicinity of the moon, whether or not there was a lunar landing, took about 3 days to get there and 3 days to return to earth.
Apollo 10 set the record for the fastest manned vehicle during the return trip from the moon on 26 May, 1969 ( they did not land, only rehearsed some of the descent techniques). The spacecraft reached a speed of 39,897 km/h (24,791 mph).
