Apollo 11 (Ap11): Apollo 11 was the NASA space mission that first landed humans on the Moon on July 20, 1969, fulfilling President John F. Kennedy's goal. The crew consisted of Commander Neil Armstrong, Lunar Module Pilot Buzz Aldrin, and Command Module Pilot Michael Collins. Armstrong and Aldrin walked on the lunar surface, with Armstrong famously saying, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind," while Collins orbited above in the command module. The mission launched on July 16, 1969, and returned safely to Earth on July 24, 1969, after collecting lunar samples and conducting experiments.
