The space shuttle did not launch on the first moon adventure. The first manned mission to land on the moon was Apollo 11, and it launched from Kennedy Space Center in Florida on July 16, 1969. The space shuttle program began in 1981, and the shuttles launched from Kennedy Space Center as well.
The Apollo 11 mission, not a space shuttle, was involved in the first lunar landing. The lunar module named "Eagle" carried astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin to the Moon's surface on July 20, 1969.

No space shuttle has been launched for the moon. It can't carry enough fuel to get there. Couldn't land if it got there.
The answer is none, the only astronauts who have been to the moon got there in various Lunar Modules, all of which were launched on Apollo rockets.
The first moon landing spacecraft was called Apollo 11. It was launched by NASA on July 16, 1969, and successfully landed on the Moon on July 20, 1969. Astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin were the first humans to walk on the lunar surface.
In 1969 the shuttle didn't exist. No shuttle has landed on the moon to this date.
The first landing by man on the moon, was made at the Tranquility Base.
