It was Apollo 7 in 1967.
The Apollo mission 14 launch date was January 31, 1971.
No, Apollo 1 was not the first Apollo mission. The first manned Apollo mission was Apollo 7, which launched on October 11, 1968. Apollo 1 was initially designated AS-204 and was scheduled to be the first manned mission, but a cabin fire during a pre-launch test on January 27, 1967, resulted in the loss of the crew.
No, Apollo 7 was an 11-day Earth-orbital mission, the first manned launch of the Saturn IB launch vehicle, and the first three-person US space mission.
There was no Apollo 2 mission. The Apollo program started with Apollo 1 and then continued to Apollo 7. This numbering change occurred because the first mission ended in a tragic accident during a pre-launch test, leading to a reassignment of mission numbers.
Apollo 1 was not actually scheduled to even travel to the moon, let alone land. Had the mission actually gone off, it would have fulfilled essentially the same mission later accomplished my Apollo 7 (the first manned mission using Apollo equipment). Apollo 7 was an 11-day Earth-orbital mission, the first manned launch of the Saturn IB launch vehicle, and the first three-person US space mission. This would have been the mission of Apollo 1.

No. The USSR was the first to launch any kind of space craft with the launch of "Sputnik 1" in 1957. The US was the first to send a man to the moon in 1969 with the Apollo 11 mission

Apollo 1 was the name of the first mission of NASA's Apollo program. The mission ended when the command module and the crew were destroyed in a fire during a routine test weeks before launch.
No, Apollo 7 did not travel to the moon, its mission was only to test the validity of the spacecraft as it was the first manned launch of the Apollo hardware. Apollo 7 did not leave Earth orbit.

The average Apollo mission cost about $500,000,000, however, Apollo 1 was much cheaper since it didn't launch. It burned a month before the scheduled launch, killing the crew.
No, there was no Apollo 1 mission. Apollo 1 was planned to be the first crewed mission in the Apollo program, but a tragic accident during a pre-launch test on January 27, 1967, resulted in the loss of the crew: Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee.
The Apollo 1 mission was originally scheduled to launch on Feb 21, 1967. The mission was the first crewed flight of Apollo and 3 astronauts, Virgil Grissom, Edward White and Roger Chaffee, lost their lives in the tragedy.
