Apollo 11, the first manned mission to land on the Moon in July 1969, made several groundbreaking discoveries. The mission brought back 47.5 pounds (21.5 kg) of lunar rock and soil samples, which provided insights into the Moon's geology and formation. Additionally, the mission confirmed that the lunar surface was covered with a layer of fine dust and revealed the presence of various minerals, including basalt and breccia. The successful landing and return of astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin also demonstrated human capability for space exploration and set the stage for future lunar missions.
