yes
Neil Armstrong commanded Apollo 11 with fellow astronauts Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins. Neil Armstrong walked on the moon on July 21st, 1969 at the Sea of Tranquility after several hours of sitting on the surface in the Lunar Module. With him was Buzz Aldrin, while Michael Collins orbited in the Command and Service Module about 60 miles above the Moon. Neil and Buzz spent approximately 2 hours and 18 minutes doing various experiments, setting up flags, collecting rocks and deploying a primitive version of the Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package (ALSEP) called the "EASEP". 5 flights to land on the moon followed theirs including an aborted landing on Apollo 13. A good movie was made about Apollo 13 called "Apollo 13". Watch it. Hopefully this answer was more detailed than you ever wanted. lol. The guy before me had a really crappy answer...
NASA Remembers Neil Armstrong - 2012 I TV was released on: USA: 13 September 2012
No, "Apollo 13" is based on a true story. The crew survives.
Apollo 13 (starring Tom Hanks, "Houston, we have a problem.")
The following 12 Apollo astronauts are the only people to have landed on the moon. Neil Armstrong Buzz Aldrin Pete Conrad Alan Bean Alan Shepard Edgar Mitchell David Scott James Irwin John W. Young Charles Duke Eugene Cernan Harrison Schmitt Additionally, the following astronauts flew to the moon and entered orbit but never landed. These are either Command Module pilots (who had to stay on board the command module while the other two astronauts descended to the surface) or crew of the Apollo 8 or 13 missions which orbited the moon but never landed. Frank Borman Jim Lovell William Anders Tom Stafford Michael Collins Dick Gordon Jack Swigert Fred Haise Stuart Roosa Al Worden Ken Mattingly Ronald Evans
They are watching the Apollo 11 mission, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walking on the moon for the first time.
I know he went up in the Apollo 11 or 13 when he was 38 and his 39th birthday was a couples of weeks later.Thats what i heard.
Neil Armstrong was the first person to set foot on the Moon during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969, not Apollo 13. Upon stepping onto the lunar surface, Armstrong famously said, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."
Apollo 11. That was when Neil Armstrong walked on the moon. There was one more ship after that called Apollo 13 and it was not successful but they all returned home safely.
Neil Armstrong set off to go to the moon on July 16, 1969, as part of the Apollo 11 mission.
So far twelve people have walked on the moon during six missions. They are, in order:Neil ArmstrongBuzz AldrinCharles ConradAlan L. BeanAlan ShepardEdgar MitchellDavid ScottJames IrwinJohn YoungCharles DukeEugene CernanHarrison Schmitt

Neil Armstrong was the first person to walk on the Moon, with Buzz Aldrin being the second, on July 20, 1969 (US time). But they were on the Apollo 11 mission, not Apollo 13. Apollo 13, launched on April 11, 1970, had an onboard explosion that prevented a lunar landing. Instead, they circled the Moon and safely returned to Earth. It was the only inflight failure of the 9 Apollo missions to the Moon.
Quite simply, Neil Armstrong was up in the rotation. The crew assignments were designated before actual mission planning took place. NASA did not have any way of knowing for certain that Apollo 11 would be the actual first landing mission since there was a chance things could go wrong (see, for example, both Apollo 1 and Apollo 13). Essentially, Armstrong and Aldrin were lucky. It was their turn to fly.
Some of the Apollo crew members include Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins from Apollo 11; Jim Lovell, Fred Haise, and Jack Swigert from Apollo 13; and Gene Cernan, Harrison Schmitt, and Ronald Evans from Apollo 17.
The movie Apollo 13 is rated PG.
Apollo 13 was the spacecraft that had an oxygen tank explosion, not the lunar module that landed on the moon. The lunar module that landed on the moon during the Apollo 11 mission was called the Eagle, piloted by astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin.
