There were a total of 17 Apollo missions conducted by NASA between 1961 and 1972. However, only Apollo 1 through Apollo 17 are often referred to as actual "flights," with Apollo 1 being a tragic ground test that ended in a fire. The most notable missions include Apollo 11, which was the first to land humans on the Moon in 1969. Ultimately, six of the missions successfully landed astronauts on the lunar surface.

While technically successful (all the Apollo missions except 1 and 13 were successful), Apollo 6 was not an actual flight.
