The Apollo 9 mission was to test the separation and rejoining of the lunar module in earth orbit.
There were a total of 19 Apollo missions: Apollo-1A : Unmanned suborbital flight Apollo - 2 : Unmanned orbital flight Apollo - 3 : Unmanned suborbital flight Apollo - 1 : Manned orbital mission, cancelled due to fatal accident. Apollo - 4 : Unmanned orbital flight Apollo - 5 : Unmanned orbital flight Apollo - 6 : Unmanned orbital fligth Apollo - 7 : Manned orbital mission Apollo - 8 : Manned lunar orbit mission Apollo - 9 : Manned orbital mission Apollo -10 : Manned lunar orbit mission Apollo- 11 : Lunar Landing mission Apollo- 12 : Lunar Landing mission Apollo- 13 : Lunar Landing mission, aborted due to accident Apollo- 14 : Lunar Landing mission Apollo- 15 : Lunar Landing mission Apollo- 16 : Lunar Landing mission Apollo- 17 : Lunar Landing mission Apollo -18 : Space rendevous mission with Soviet Soyuz spacecraft (Apollo-Soyuz)
The first Apollo manned Apollo mission to get of the ground was Apollo 7. This 11 day mission was simply a test flight of the command and service module. The second Earth only Apollo flight was that of Apollo 9. The purpose of this flight was to test the Lunar module to make sure the descent engine and ascent engined worked flawlessly.
Apollo 9 was an Earth-orbital test of the lunar module, crucial for the upcoming Moon landings. The mission included testing the docking and undocking procedures with the command module in space, as well as testing the performance of both the lunar module and the command module systems.
Yes, Apollo 9 was a successful mission. It was the third crewed mission in the Apollo program and marked the first flight of both the lunar module and the Command/Service Module together in space. The astronauts conducted crucial tests and maneuvers to demonstrate the capabilities of the spacecraft for future missions to the Moon.
Apollo 9 cost an estimated $340 million in 1969 or approximately $2.2 billion in 2014.
