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.
What else can I help you with?
Why were spaceships called Apollo's?
Only lunar (moon) mission spacecraft were called Apollos. The first manned space flight program was named Mercury, the second was named Gemini. These were test/learning programs leading to the third named Apollo. These early U.S. programs were named after Greek and Roman Gods. Apollo was a god of light and the sun, truth and prophecy and other talents. The spacecraft that were made as part of the Apollo program are called Apollo spacecraft and the flights called Apollo missions. Apollo 11 was the first Apollo mission to put men on the moon.
Why was Apollo 17 the last manned made flight to the moon?
Apollo 17 was the last manned mission to the moon because of budget cuts, shifting priorities within NASA, and waning public interest in space exploration. After completing the mission objectives set by the Apollo program, NASA decided to focus on other programs such as the development of the Space Shuttle.
What is the name of the Russian space program that an American Apollo linked with in space in 1975?
The Russian space program that linked with the American Apollo spacecraft in space in 1975 was the Soviet Soyuz program. This joint mission was known as the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project (ASTP) and symbolized the end of the Space Race between the United States and the Soviet Union.
Will there be more Apollo missions?
No, there are no plans for more Apollo missions. The Apollo program ended in 1972 after the successful moon landings. NASA's focus has shifted to other space exploration missions, such as the Artemis program, which aims to return humans to the Moon and eventually send astronauts to Mars.
Why was Apollo 17 the last mission?
Apollo 17 was the final mission of NASA's Apollo program because of budget cuts, shifting priorities, and a declining public interest in further manned moon missions. The focus of space exploration shifted towards the development of the Space Shuttle program and other projects.

Can a program call a software?
A program is software. One program can call another program to be run. Computer systems consist of lots of individual programs which work together. Applications consist of lots of individual programs that work together. So programs need to be able to call other programs. A good example is that a menu can sometimes be one separate program and each option it calls could potentially be other individual programs.
