The purpose of Apollo 12 was to land on Luna, again. Although NASA astronauts already landed on the moon once, in Apollo 11, NASA wanted to learn more of our dear moon.

During launch, Saturn V was actually struck by lightning! But after a while of the power off, flight control managed to get the power back up, and the emergency plans weren't used.

The three astronauts landed safely on Luna and back to earth.
