Apollo 11

The Sea of Tranquility was chosen as the landing site for Apollo 11 because it is a relatively flat and smooth area on the Moon's surface, which reduced the risk of landing complications. Additionally, it provided a safe and stable location for the lunar module to touch down and explore. The site's smoother terrain also made it easier for the astronauts to move around and collect samples.

Apollo 11, which was launched on July 16, 1969, successfully landed astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin on the Moon on July 20, 1969. Armstrong became the first human to set foot on the lunar surface, followed by Aldrin about 20 minutes later.

Apollo 11 was actually the shortest and least documented of the moon landings. As technology improved over the three active landing years they went from a very poor-quality grainy black and white television camera mounted to a static tripod coverage to high quality, color, ground-controlled pan/tilt camera mounted to the lunar rover on Apollo 17.

The fact that people believe Apollo 11 is the only properly documented mission (a "fact" likely gleaned from conspiracy websites) shows that they have done almost zero actual research into the other missions. Even a Wikipedia search of the other missions will reveal large amounts of data. The truth is very readily available and much of it is right here on this website.

The first man to land on the moon was Neil Armstrong, in 1969 as part of NASA's Apollo 11 mission.

The first two people to walk on the moon were Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong.

The first spacecraft to reach the Moon was the Soviet spacecraft Luna 2, which successfully impacted the lunar surface on September 13, 1959.

Alan Shepard and his crew was supposed to fly Apollo 13, but he got an ear infection close to the launch, so the crew of Apollo 14 were moved up a place allowing Alan Shepard to fly Apollo 14. The reason the whole crew switched was because they trained with each other and were put together to compliment each others skills.

It was the Eagle lunar module, built by Grumman Aerospace and part of the Apollo spacecraft mission. The Eagle landed on July 20th, 1969 in the Sea of Tranquility, a mare on the moon. The pilots were Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, and they conducted the first moonwalk.

The reaction worldwide was one of awe and excitement. People were amazed at the accomplishment and saw it as a significant milestone for humanity. It sparked a sense of unity and pride among many.

Not sure I understand this question, but if you're asking if Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon with his right foot first, the answer is no, he stepped onto the moon with his left foot first.

Apollo 11 overcame Earth's gravity by using a powerful rocket called the Saturn V. The rocket had multiple stages that ignited in sequence to propel the spacecraft into space. Once in space, the spacecraft's speed allowed it to escape Earth's gravitational pull and travel to the Moon.

The Apollo program changed space exploration in many ways. It landed 12 people on the moon between 1969 and 1972,it helped us further understand what happens in long term missions, it helped develop the first American space station and the most advanced one at the time, and it proved to the world that democracy triumphs over socialism.

Apollo 11 landed on the Moon on July 20, 1969, not on a person named Maria. The spacecraft carried astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins. They made history with the first manned landing on the Moon.

No, there was no Apollo 1 mission. Apollo 1 was planned to be the first crewed mission in the Apollo program, but a tragic accident during a pre-launch test on January 27, 1967, resulted in the loss of the crew: Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee.

The Command Module Pilot (CMP) was Michael Collins. The Lunar Module Pilot (LMP) was Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin.

39 because he was born August 5, 1930 and it launched July 16, 1969!

After completing its mission on the moon, Apollo 11 utilized its propulsion system to leave lunar orbit and return to Earth. The spacecraft's engines fired to break free from the moon's gravitational pull and begin the journey back home. The spacecraft then carefully calculated its trajectory to re-enter Earth's atmosphere and safely splash down in the ocean.

A number of items were left behind after every mission. They left behind trash, their PLiSS's (personal life support system, aka the backpack), science equipment (the Apollo 11 science package was called the EASEP, Early Apollo Scientific Experiment Package, future missions left behind an ALSEP, Apollo Lunar Surface Experiment Package), American Flags, the Descent Stages (the legs) of the Landing Modules, and some personal items which many astronauts have kept to themselves. Apollo's 15, 16, and 17 also left behind the Lunar Rovers.

Harrison "Jack" Schmitt was the first (and only) scientist, a geologist, to walk on the moon. He was part of the Apollo 17 crew, landing in December of 1972.

Galileo Galilei is often credited with the discovery of moons when he observed four of Jupiter's largest moons through a telescope in 1610. These moons are now known as the Galilean moons: Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto.

Neil Armstrong had the camera and too the pictures, which is why there are no still images of Neil on the lunar surface. All still images of Apollo 11 astronauts on the moon are of Buzz Aldrin.

After the first man landed on the moon in 1969, several more Apollo missions followed, with a total of 12 astronauts walking on the moon. However, interest and funding for further manned missions to the moon diminished, and efforts shifted towards building a space station and exploring other parts of space.

The Apollo rockets that were launched for the moon missions are either in museums or on display in various locations across the United States. For example, the Saturn V rocket used for the Apollo 11 mission is displayed at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Other Apollo rockets may have been used for other purposes, scrapped, or lost in space.

Australia played a crucial role in the Apollo 11 mission by providing tracking stations that supported communication between mission control in the US and the spacecraft. The Parkes Observatory in New South Wales and the Honeysuckle Creek Tracking Station in the Australian Capital Territory were instrumental in receiving and transmitting signals during various phases of the mission, including the historic moon landing.

The first man-made object to land on the Moon was the Soviet spacecraft Luna 2, on September 13, 1959. It successfully impacted the Moon's surface, marking a significant milestone in space exploration.
