For whatever reasons, some people cannot accept that current human technology could overcome the substantial obstacles to such a difficult achievement. This ignores the concurrent developments in aviation, satellite, and materials that occurred in the second half of the 20th Century. (21st century advancements in digital special effects now enable fictional recreations nearly comparable to the visual records of the period.)
For some, it is the extension of denying anything historical because they did not witness or take part in it.

How many US spaceships landed on the moon?
If you mean manned landings, there have been six Apollo landings. Only Apollo has landed people on the moon. If you include unmanned probes there were three Ranger probes and five Surveyor probes. So the US has landed a total of 14 spacecraft on the moon. The Soviet Union put nine Luna probes on the moon, making a total of 23 Earth origin spacecraft to land on the moon.
Who where the first people to walk on the moon in what year?
The Apollo 11 mission. Neil Armstrong, 10:56 pm EDT, July 20th 1969. (2:56 UTC July 21, 1969). Buzz Aldrin followed him onto the surface about 15 minutes later. Among other independent evidence suggesting that the Apollo 11 moon landings weren't a hoax, in July of 2009 the LROC Science Operations Center at Arizona State University positively identified Apollo 11 and the trails of footprints left by these two men in images taken by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.
Which spaceship was used by the astronauts to land on the moon?
Apollo was the name of all the lunar missions. The various craft that went were numbered. 6 missions went to the moon and landed on it, which were Apollo 11, 12, 14, 15, 16 and 17. Each lunar mission spacecraft consisted of two parts, a command module and a lunar module. The command module got people to the moon and orbited around it and got them back to Earth. The lunar module was the part that actually landed on the moon. The 6 lunar modules that landed on the moon were: Eagle Intrepid Antares Falcon Orion Challenger
How many lunar missions have failed?
I'm not sure what you are asking. The only manned lunar mission that failed was Apollo 13. For why that mission failed visit the related link below.
What was the purpose of the Apollo program?
The purpose was to put man on the moon and return him and the spacecraft safely. But they also wanted to establish new technology and develop man's abillity to work in a lunar enviorment. The Apollo program is the most remembered and most significant of all the programs. Sincerely, Phantomfreak6377
What program were the moon landing a part of?
The manned lunar landings were part of the US's Apollo program.
Was there a second moon landing?
No, there wasn't a second moon landing. The Apollo program that resulted in six successful manned moon landings concluded with Apollo 17 in 1972. There have been no subsequent manned moon landings since then.
Which Apollo spacecraft stayed in lunar orbit?
I believe it was #11.
How many times man walked on moon?
There were six Apollo moon landings carrying 12 men to the moon's surface.
How many moon landings were made?
There have been six manned moon landings, all conducted by NASA's Apollo program between 1969 and 1972. Each mission successfully landed astronauts on the lunar surface and returned them safely to Earth.
What date were the moon landings launched?
I assume you're referring to the manned lunar landings. Those launch dates are as follows: Apollo 11 - July 20, 1969 Apollo 12 - November 14, 1969 Apollo 14 - January 31, 1971 Apollo 15 - July 26, 1971 Apollo 16 - April 16, 1972 Apollo 17 - December 7, 1972
When were the first moon landings?
Six Apollo missions carried twelve American astronauts to land and walk onthe moon between 1969 and 1972.There were no manned lunar landings before, and there have been none since.
How many times did America land on the moon?
If you mean manned landings then six times; Apollos 11, 12, 14, 15, 16 and 17
What mission led to Apollo 9?
Apollo 9 was an Earth-orbital test of the lunar module, crucial for the upcoming Moon landings. The mission included testing the docking and undocking procedures with the command module in space, as well as testing the performance of both the lunar module and the command module systems.
How many times have people been to the moon?
A total of 12 people have walked on the moon as part of the Apollo missions conducted by NASA between 1969 and 1972. These missions included six manned landings on the lunar surface.
How many moon landings have there been who?
There have been six successful crewed moon landings, all conducted by NASA during the Apollo program between 1969 and 1972. The missions were Apollo 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17. Each mission involved astronauts landing on the lunar surface, conducting scientific experiments, and collecting samples. There have also been numerous uncrewed landings by various countries, but the Apollo missions remain the only crewed landings to date.
What was the name of the American spaceship which were used in the trips to the moon?
The American spaceships that were used in the trips to the moon were part of the Apollo program. Specifically, the Apollo spacecraft consisted of the Command Module (CM), the Service Module (SM), and the Lunar Module (LM) used for moon landings.
