Apollo 9 was the third manned mission in the Apollo Program and the first flight of the Command/Service Module (CSM) with the Lunar Module (LM). The goal was to test the LM in orbit and practice maneuvering and rendezvous with the CSM.
Apollo 7 was the first manned Apollo mission and served as a successful test of the Apollo Command and Service Module in Earth orbit. Apollo 9 tested the Lunar Module in Earth orbit, making it crucial for the subsequent moon landing missions. Both missions were important steps towards the ultimate goal of landing astronauts on the moon.
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.
The main goal of the Apollo program (which was made by the United States during the Space Race between the United States and the Soviet Union) was to safely get a man to the moon and back.
Apollo 13 was to land on the moon and do experiments, but as it was cancelled. Apollo 14 did the job.
