When did the US land on the moon?
July 20 1969 was the first moon landing, and 5 more came after that until 1972
When was the first moon landing?
The first lunar landing was by the unmanned Russian Luna 2 on September 13 1959. Though the vehicle impacted, it was not a controlled descent.
Luna 9 on 31 Jan 1966 was the first soft unmanned landing.
Surveyor 1 on 30 May 1966 was the first US unmanned soft landing
20 July 1969 first manned moon landing. Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon the following day.
In 1962, the US unmanned Rangers 3, 4, and 5 made impact or attempted impact landings on the moon. There was not to be a manned mission to the moon until 1968, and no manned landing until 1969.
Did man actually land on the moon?
Yes, man actually did land on the moon. Various conspiracy theories concerning the moon landings being fake are not credible and are rife with inaccuracies and false information.
Next Answer:
Yes man did actually land on the moon. It was Neil Armstrong and his crew, and there is proof because I read this book about it!!!
Hi! Yes, human life did step foot on the moon.
Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin were the first two, of twelve, to set foot on the moon.

Personally I do not agree that we ever went to the moon because if we did why haven't we been back!!!???
No bucks, no Buck Rogers. Republican President Nixon ended Apollo as quickly as he could get away with, renamed Cape Kennedy "Cape Canaveral", and saw to it that the last Moonworthy Apollo capsules etc. were wasted on a publicity stunt called "Apollo-Soyuz". Since then, no President has pushed to go again. The public was getting so blaze' about Apollo that people actually griped when Lunar coverage cut into their soap operas!
-------------------------------------------------------
Also how is the footprint still there (the "wind" created dust when the space shuttle landed so why wouldn't it when it set off - this "wind" would have blown the footprint away).
No air means no wind. Remember, the the Ascent stage of the Lunar Module was several feet above the Moon's surface, supported by the Descent Stage (the gold boxy part with the legs). So the Ascent engine exhaust hit this, not the lunar surface. Since there is no air, there is nothing to carry dust, or for that matter, to be stirred up the way rockets on Earth stir up the air around them. Also, no air means that rocket exhaust sprays out wider, as there is no air it has to push aside. Spraying out wider means less power to push dust in any given spot, even if the exhaust could have reached the ground.
----------------------------------------
in addition to this the flag in all of the photos appears to be moving in the wind but any logical person knows that there is no wind or atmosphere in space so this would not have happened.
The flags had a metal rod sewn into the top edge, to hold them out to look as though they were flying. Footage of the astronauts twisting the pole back and forth to get the pole into the ground, is edited by moon hoax jokers so you can't hear that what they are doing is wiggling the flagpole to get it deeper. The flag *never* moves unless an astronaut is moving it, or has just moved it and it is settling down, or at the very least, brushes past it. If you look closely, the flag moves back and forth like a pendulum at these times... it does not catch air and billow as a flag in air does.
------------------------------------------
As well as this there is an area of desert that cannot be accessed by an unauthorised person and anyone who comes into a close range of this area often is killed/shot so there are conspiracies that suggest this area is where the faked moon landing occurred.
The military has a good many places that people can't just wander in, as it is hard to tell a spy from any other guy with a camera. This does not in any way imply that any conspiracies are going on there. People also forget that Apollo was a civilian organization. It is understandable that people forget this... remember "I Dream of Jeannie" portrayed NASA as if it were military! Conspiracy buffs can and do "suggest" a good many conspiracies. But somehow the dog always ate their proof. ;-)
--------------------------------------------------
Overall it is just a matter of your own opinion but why should we believe everything "higher figures of authority" say as at the time there was a race with Russia and i think we just wanted to say we beat them - even tho we weren't actually as technologically advanced as them. (It all makes sense!!!)
The Russians would have been the first to cry foul if their radar and telescopes did not show the Apollo capsule going to and from the Moon. If they had not heard the astronauts talking on the radio, if they had not seen them on their own TV gear... they would have been very loud on the subject! it is true they had a heavier lift rocket, but theirs was simply 18 smaller rockets lashed together. They generated a great deal of thrust, if they didn't explode on the pad, which regrettably happened. Since we had less lift, we had to learn to miniaturize electronics, etc. The first CPU on a chip was made for Apollo craft... you are using its descendant now! And no one on Earth has ever been able to copy a moon rock... which are routinely sent to researchers all over the world, who would also raise a fuss if they were fake... remember, they have analysis techniques now no one could have foreseen then. But it takes billions of years of perfectly dry crystal growth, meteoroid impact, and high energy radiation impacts, to make a moon rock. That's nothing that could be copied, even today... let alone back then.
--------------------------------------------
So, yes, beyond all reasonable scientific doubt, men *did* walk on the Moon!
Please see the links below; they will help a lot in understanding what really happened.
How much did the moon landing cost?
The total cost of the Apollo program, which included the moon landing, was estimated to be around $25 billion. This amount covered the expenses for research, development, and multiple missions leading up to the successful moon landing in 1969.
Does an orange moon have anything to do with erupting volcanos?
No it has no connection with Volcanic Eruptions........... A orange moon is really just a lunar eclipse, which is when the sun, moon, and earth are lined up. The moon turns red because it is in the earths shadow.
What year did pete conrad walk on the moon?
Pete Conrad walked on the moon in 1969 as part of the Apollo 12 mission. He was the third person to walk on the lunar surface.
Which animal first landed on moon?
No animal has landed on the moon. The first animals in space were fruit flies, followed by monkeys and dogs. The first living creatures to reach the moon were a species of microscopic animals called tardigrades.
What is the name of Armstrong's lunar module?
The first landing was by the USSR in 1959 when they crashed landed Luna 2.
The first soft landing with the aid of rockets came in 1966 when the USSR landed Luna 9
The first manned landing was when the US landed Apollo 11 in 1969
You skate 1000m in 75s How fast are you traveling?
To find your speed, divide the distance traveled by the time taken. In this case, 1000 meters divided by 75 seconds gives you a speed of approximately 13.33 meters per second.
The first man to go to the moon?
The first man to land his feet on the moon, was the American astronaut Neil Armstrong, they landed on the moon in the Apollo 11 on 20/7/1969. And they returned safely to earth on the 24/7/1969..
But the first man to to go to the moon was Apollo 8 astronauts Frank Borman, James Lovell and William Anders.
What were the physics of Apollo 11's moon landing?
The physics of Apollo 11's moon landing involved overcoming Earth's gravity, adjusting the trajectory to intercept the moon, orbiting the moon, and navigating a safe landing. Key concepts such as thrust, velocity, acceleration, and gravitational forces were crucial for the success of the mission. The Lunar Module's descent was carefully controlled to achieve a soft landing on the moon's surface despite the challenges posed by the lack of atmosphere and the moon's gravitational pull.
How many people can fit in a hubble spacecraft?
The Hubble Space Telescope is a space observatory, not a spacecraft designed to carry people. It is operated remotely from Earth and was specifically built for a single purpose: astronomical observations.
How many people employed at NASA to launch Apollo 11?
Approximately 400,000 people were employed at NASA to support the successful launch of Apollo 11, including engineers, scientists, technicians, and support staff. This massive effort involved collaboration between NASA, contractors, and various organizations to achieve the historic moon landing mission.
Who was the last person born in 1899?
There is still several folks alive that were born in 1899. In fact, there is a man born in 1897. His name is Jiroemon Kimura ofKyoto Japan. He is currently the oldest person in the world alive and was born on April 19, 1897 (the oldest woman is 115-year old Misawo Okawa, born March 5, 1898). The population of people born in the 1800s is dwindling and in the next 2-5 years, we might not have anyone on earth born in the then. When 2010 came, everyone born before 1900 became a super-centenarian (110 years or older). As of April 3, 2013, there are 10 people verified alive that were born in that era.
Where is The Apollo 11 Cave located?
Namibia, Africa. For those that are unsure of what the Apollo 11 Cave is, it is the spot where Africa's oldest known paintings were excavated. They were found in 1969, the year the Apollo 11 crew landed on the moon for the first time, hence the name.
Are there any poems written about Apollo 11?
20JULY1969 by W.W. Cooper
They made it, we all made it, just a bit
like vikings leaving runes and little more.
taking the lesser light where God placed it
to show ourselves what a heaven's for.
They loped like divings uited kangaroos
over that sterile world of one night stands,
driving moon bugs and golf balls to amuse
the children, while the stars slipped through our hands.
They're gone now to their shrinks and shrunken space.
The praise is theirs; it's ours to wonder why
the world's still flat and dreams are out of grace
So I, believing less each summer, pry
open that lost last year to see the bright
earth jewel smooth and blue in velvet night.
(Analog magazine, 1979 if memory serves)

ODE TO ALSEP
With all the world waiting
We turned our eyes skyward.
Remember that day when we all looked through
Our electric windows on the universe,
Seeing old spheres from a new point of view?
Three times again, and again, and again,
Descending on dancing flames,
They scurried, slow-motion, through ancient dust
Who still now remembers their names?
They did the unthinkable, achieved the impossible,
Went where none had preceded, and more.
"Ho-hum! ...another launch, you say?
Is football on Channel Four?"
Mechanical colonists left behind
When we blasted back home in our ships
Drew life in their bellies from shattering atoms,
Energizing electronic chips.
They sensed the heat of ancient fires,
Moon-embers, banked deep inside.
They felt the star-bits streaming,
And the rumbling silent tide.
ALSEP voices, talking to Earth
In chattering bits and bytes
Sent their colonial treasures back
Through the lunar days and nights.
They measured the limb-shocked solar winds,
Changing the charges in sputtered lands,
And vibrating signals crossed the void,
Twitching inked fingers on metal hands.
The footprints and tire-tracks, unchanging, remain.
Like paths to the future, they glisten.
Solipsistic sentinals converse with themselves,
But there's nobody left who can listen.

What ws the name of the first moon landing vehicle?
The name of the first moon landing vehicle was the "Lunar Module," also known as "LM."
What was the name of the ship that picked up the Apollo 11 crew after splashdown?
The recovery ship was the second USS Hornet (CV-12), a World War II aircraft carrier, which is now a museum ship at Naval Air Station Alameda in Alameda, CA. On the return from their historic first walk on the Moon, Apollo 11 splashed down on July 24, 1969, south of Johnson Atoll in the Pacific Ocean, about 15 miles (24 km) from the USS Hornet.
I choose to believe that it isn't and you should believe the same.
Don't question such a historic landmark unless you have facts to prove otherwise.
Yes, there have been documentaries and people coming up with absurd statements. These documentaries are there to make money.
When did Apollo 11 start to come back to earth?
Apollo 11 started its process back to Earth on July 21, 1969.
How much horsepower did the main engines of the Apollo Saturn V rocket generate?
1st stage developed 7,648,000 pounds force, 2nd stage developed 1,000,000 pounds force, 3rd stage developed 225,000 pounds force.
What is the secret task in mission 11?
All you got to do is Once you are in Ski Village you will find out that you need to find a new DVD to broadcast. Make sure that you speak to all the penguins here. One of the penguins has a pair of broken glasses and he asks for your help to fix them. This is a bonus mission that we will also help you solve.
Talk to all the penguins and find information about the bonus mission will need to first head to the Lighthouse to find the items that you need. Here you will find a dirty DVD, some cleaning supplies and a tin can.Get the DVD cleaning supplies.Go to the "Dock" and place the tin can over the ocean so you can fill it with water.Now that you have the water head back to HQ and go to the gadget room. Use the "test chamber" and put the tin can underneath the sign that reads "place object here." Once you have done this you will need to click the lever with the red handle.
Place the tin can under the "place object here" sign then click the lever with the red handle.
Now the tin can will be inside. Press the snow flake button to freeze the water in the tin can and then click the lever with the red handle to release the can. Once you do this you will notice a piece of ice (shaped like a lens) will come out. Grab this ice and put it in your inventory.Once you have the ice piece head back to the Lighthouse. Go upstairs to the top and give the ice to the construction worker. Now you will be able to pick up the glass lens sitting next to him. Grab this lens and bring it back to the brown penguin with broken glasses in Ski Village.Give the lens to the brown penguin. He promises you that he will tell all his friends about you.
Give the lens to the penguin so he can fix his glasses.
Then just finish the rest of the mission
