Michael Collins was the Apollo 11 Command Module pilot and stayed in orbit when Armstrong and Aldrin went down to explore the lunar surface on July 20, 1969. Each of the six Apollo landing missions (11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17) had one astronaut staying with the main craft and two astronauts taking the LEM (Lunar Excursion Module) to the surface and back.

Who else was with Neil Armstrong on the Apollo 11 mission?

There was no "Space Shuttle" when Neil Armstrong launched, and he never flew on one. Armstrong was a member of the 3-man crew aboard Apollo 11, along with Edwin Aldrin and Michael Collins, launched in July 1969. The three of them together rode the Apollo command module to the vicinity of the moon, and entered lunar orbit. Armstrong and Aldrin then climbed into the Lunar Excursion Module (LEM), separated from the command module, and descended to the lunar surface, where they became the first humans to walk on the surface of the moon, while Collins continued to orbit the moon in the command module. The Space Shuttle, which came 15 years later, was never capable of going anywhere near the moon.
