Apollo 11

Following the Apollo 11 mission, Neil Armstrong served as a NASA administrator, professor, and private consultant. He also worked on various aviation and space exploration committees. Armstrong led a relatively private life after his historic moonwalk, avoiding the public spotlight.

Most of the huge Saturn V rocket used in the Apollo 11 mission was destroyed. This was all planned as most of the rocket ship was just a container for the enormous amount of fuel necessary for the mission. The only parts that actually went to the moon were the command module, the service module and the lunar module... altogether not much bigger than a bus - all that remained from a Saturn V rocket ship that was over 360ft in height. The base of the Lunar module is still resting on the moon, on the Apollo 11 landing site after acting as a launchpad for the lunar module on its return from the moon. The lunar module itself was crashlanded on the surface after it was dispensed with. The service module was detached from the command module on entry to the earth's atmosphere and burned up on re-entry into the atmosphere. The command module, containing the 3 astronauts, was the only part to return. This is now on display at the National Air and Space Museum, Washington DC, USA.

All of the Apollos used the same fuels, although they used two different boosters.

Spacecraft (CSM) - Aerozine 50 and Nitrogen Tetroxide

LM - Aerozine 50 and Nitrogen Tetroxide

The launch vehicles used RP-1 (basically kerosene) and liquid oxygen for the first stage and liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen for the upper stages.

Apollo 11 launched June 16, 1969. After doing one and a half orbits around the Earth, the astronauts were off to the moon. The trip took 4 days, 6 hours, and 45 minutes.

The United States was the first country to put a man on the moon. It achieved this milestone on July 20, 1969, during the Apollo 11 mission. Astronaut Neil Armstrong was the first person to walk on the moon.

The first two people to walk on the moon were Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, who were part of the Apollo 11 mission in 1969. Neil Armstrong was the first to step onto the lunar surface, followed by Buzz Aldrin.

Apollo 11 was the flight into space that led to the first steps on the Moon. It left Earth on July 16, 1969 at 1:32 in the afternoon.

The Apollo 11 Command Module was named "Columbia."

The purpose of the Apollo 11 was to fulfill John F. Kennedy's promise. The promise was that the United States would land a man on the moon and return him safely to earth before the end of the 1960s. Apollo 11 landed on the moon on July 20, 1969.

Americans walked on the moon on July 20, 1969, during the Apollo 11 mission led by NASA astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin. Armstrong was the first person to set foot on the lunar surface followed by Aldrin.

Apollo 11 landed on the Moon in the southern Sea of Tranquility region. The specific landing site was named "Tranquility Base," where astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the Moon on July 20, 1969.

Neil Armstrong, an astronaut with NASA, was the first person to set foot on the moon on July 20, 1969, during the Apollo 11 mission.

The moon buggy used on the Apollo 11 mission was called the "Lunar Roving Vehicle" or simply the "Lunar Rover." It was a battery-powered vehicle designed to allow astronauts to travel across the lunar surface during their missions.

Yes. Michael Collins stayed on the Command Module orbiting the moon, while Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong landed and walked on the lunar surface. He did this because someone needed to maintain the systems on board the Command and Service Modules.

Upon stepping on the moon, Neil Armstrong famously said: "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." This phrase has become iconic and represents the significance of the Apollo 11 mission for humanity's exploration of space.

Apollo 11 launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida.

The United States President who has his name featured on a plaque on the moon is former President Richard Nixon. His name is featured on two plaques - the plaques from Apollo 11 and Apollo 17.

Man first landed on the moon on July 20, 1969, during NASA's Apollo 11 mission. Astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin were the first humans to set foot on the lunar surface.

The first man to walk in space was the Russian cosmonaut Alexi Leonov.

Apollo 11 is a significant event because it was the first time that humans had set foot on the moon for the u.s. Well obviously but it also confirmed Americas superiority over russia and keeping jfk's promise to have a man on the moon and return him by the end of the century.

The Russian vehicle Luna 2 was the first spacecraft to land on the moon.

Yes, the United States successfully landed astronauts on the moon with the Apollo 11 mission on July 20, 1969. Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the lunar surface.

Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon on July 20, 1969.

During the Apollo space mission, the astronauts ate space food. Most of it was dehydrated or freeze dried food, such as meats and vegetables, that water could be added to in order to reconstitute it.
