Apollo Program
Discovery, Exploration
The Apollo program was the third human spaceflight program operated by the United States' National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), which succeeded in its milestone goal of landing humans on Luna. The Apollo program spanned 13 years, from 1961 to 1974 CE, with the first crewed flight in 1968. The program had one major disaster which claimed three lives: Apollo 1 suffered a fatal cabin fire during a prelaunch test. Nine lunar surface missions were planned, though because of another near-catastrophe (nonfatal) only eight lunar landings were achieved.
