No, Eagle 1 landed on the moon from the Apoolo 11 moon launch.  Apollo 13 had a malfunction and had to abort the moon landing.

Only the United States. Twelve men have walked on the moon:\n\nNeil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, Apollo 11, 1969\nCharles Conrad and Alan Bean, Apollo 12, 1969\nAlan Shepard and Edgar Mitchell , Apollo 14, 1971\nDavid Scott and James Irwin, Apoll 15, 1971\nJohn Young and Charles Duke, Apollo 16, 1972\nEugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt, Apollo 17, 1972

Yes. Neil Armstrong and others have really walked on the moon.  They even left a mirror on the surface which, over 30 years later, we still use to measure the distance between the earth and the moon.

No they have not. The USSR had 3 programs to explore the moon, L-1, L-3 and Luna, and they were scaled back when it was realized that the Americans would beat them. They had planned a landing for 1968 when some disasterous setbacks made them realize it was not going to be possible. The Americans of course landed in 1969.

no...they didnt land on the moon at all and lot of evidence points that the moon landings were faked\n1,,to reach moon the astonauts had to pass beyond the van allen belt.which is a protective barrier of charged particles cosmic rays etc..beyond which they wud b exposed to intense harmful cosmic rays...thir aircraft apollo 11 had only a thin lining of lead for protection which is not at all sufficient...so it is suggested dat apollo 11 just cirled up before reachuing the van allen belt\n2,,moreover the photographic film wud hav been clearly damaged while passing thru the belt as it does it if its passeed thru an ordinary xray machine\n3,,the camera that the astros used i.e. hasselblad wree old fashioned and changing their photographic plates is a very tricky process requiring handling of delicate plates n nimble fingers...this task was impossible 4 the astros as they wore thick rubber gloves\n4,,one of their pics shows the terrain behind aldrin fading away into the horizon while there is no atmosphere on moon to cause such an effect\n4,,more over in one of the pics some suspiciuos equipments reflection can be seen on aldrins visor..it can cl4early be seen againt the darkness of the horizonwhere one might expectto glimpse a piece of film equipment if it had been shot in a film studio\n5,,moreover the absence of stars in the pics,lack of scortch marksand a crater under the lunar module which wud hav been formed by its landing are suspiciously missing\n\nhence too much to prove that the landings were faked

I think they did it. A friend of mine directed me to lunaranomalies.com and they had some interesting theories, yet each of these amateur theories were disproved. Look at it this way. In 1969 the americans and the russians were locked in a desperate bid to get into orbit and ultimately the moon. "Journey beyond selene" by Jeffery Kluger brilliantly documented this. The russian premier publicly mocked the americans and their various failures at even hitting the moon with a basic rocket. Enter 1969 and the pictures of Aldrin and Armstrong on the moon. No comment from Russia. They didn't even televise it. If there was even a hint of evidence that it was faked, the russians would have been all over it like a rash. If it was faked they did a really good job. A secret like that could never be kept, and not one reputable scientist has challenged it. All we have are diehard and paranoid lay people looking for attention. If you look up Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin on the net you might find some hilarious footage of the day he left a conference to be accosted by one such person. He knocked him flat with one punch! Hilarious. Selene is the greek word for moon.

Yes. Man landed on the moon. Man has flown in space ships and lived in habitats in space. There was also an effort to irradicate Jewish people, it was the Halocaust. This is all part of History. No pseudo-intellectuals can change that no matter how hard they try. People should put their efforts into making the present and future better instead of making up lies about the past.

yes, he did land on the moon.\n\nthe studio scandal was originated during the Cold War era by jealous Russian communists who couldn't stand the fact that Americans were beating them in aeronautics.

There's always been heavy debate as to whether or not we've actually been to the moon, etc. and there is actual evidence that we haven't. maybe what you're seeing is a farce, maybe it's just some scientific anomaly. Who outside of the space program can say for sure?

1) Twelve 12 American astronauts have walked on the moon.\n\nApollo 11: Neil Armstrong & Buzz Aldrin\nApollo 12: Pete Conrad & Alan Bean\nApollo 13: << failed to land on the moon >>\nApollo 14: Alan Shepard & Edgar (Ed) Mitchell\nApollo 15: David Scott & James Irwin\nApollo 16: John Young & Charles Duke\nApollo 17: Eugene (Gene) Cernan & Harrison Schmidt\n\n\n2) Why haven't we been back?  \n\na) American astronauts visited the moon on six occasions.\n\nb) The "moon race" was an extension of the cold war. It was mostly about national prestige. We got there first and achieved our primary objective. There was some good science: surveys, measurements, sample collection. But it was mostly about being there first. Once we achieved our primary objective, there was no political will to go back. There still isn't.  Perhaps, if we discover He3 or something else valuable, there will be.\n\nc) I used to travel to Crested Butte, Colorado every year to ski. Because I don't go anymore, does it mean that I never went?\n\n\n3) What about the Van Allen radiation belts?  Wouldn't it have killed the astronauts?\n\nThe existence of the Van Allen radiation belts postulated in the 1940s by Nicholas Christofilos.  Their existence was confirmed in *1958* by the Explorer I satellite launched by the USA. \n\nThe radiation in the Van Allen radiation belts is not particularly strong.  You would have to hang out there for a week or so in order to get radiation sickness.  And, because the radiation is not particularly strong, a few millimeters of metal is all that is required for protection.  "An object satellite shielded by 3 mm of aluminum will receive about 2500 rem (25 Sv) per *year*."\n\n"In practice, Apollo astronauts who travelled to the moon spent very little time in the belts and received a harmless dose. [6]. Nevertheless NASA deliberately timed Apollo launches, and used lunar transfer orbits that only skirted the edge of the belt over the equator to minimise the radiation."  When the astronauts returned to Earth, their dosimeters showed that they had received about as much radiation as a couple of medical X-rays.\n\n\n4) The U.S. government scammed everyone?  \n\nIn 1972, there was a politically motivated burglary of a hotel room in the Watergate Hotel in Washington, D.C. There were only about six or eight people who knew about it. However, those people, including Richard M. Nixon, the President of the United States, failed to keep that burglary a secret. It exploded into a scandal that drove the President and a number of others from office.\n\nIf six or eight people couldn't keep a hotel room burglary a secret, then how could literally thousands of people could have kept their mouths shut about six faked moon landings? Not just one moon landing, but six of them!\n\n\n5) What about the USSR?  \n\nEven if NASA and other government agencies could have faked the six moon landings well enough to fool the general public, they could NOT have fooled the space agency or military intelligence types in the USSR. The Soviets were just dying to beat us. If the landings were faked, the Soviets would have re-engineered their N-1 booster and landed on the moon just to prove what liars Americans are. Why didn't they? Because the landings were real and the Soviets knew it.\n\n\n6) Why does the flag shake?  Where are the stars?\n\nTake a look at the first two websites listed below.

twelve americans have stepped onto the lunar soil. they are, in order, neil a armstrong and edwin e aldren (apollo 11), charles conrad and alan bean (apollo 12), alan b shepard and edgar d mitchell (apollo 14), david r scott and james b irwin (apollo 15), john w young and charles m duke (apollo 16), and eugene a cernan and harrison h schmidt (apollo 17).\n\nthe second was edwin e aldren.

no, becasue there's no wind on the moon, yet the flag was waving. \nalso all one would have to do to prove it did happen was photograph the landing site through a telescope.\nthe rover didn't fly off into space did it. if it's still there and you want find out for yourself then break out your telescope and find it.\nnot to get your hopes up, but you wont find anything.

We've sent 9 missions to the Moon. Apollo 8 and 10 orbited the Moon only. Apollo 13 had an explosion on the way out, swung around the Moon, and came back to Earth. Apollo 11,12,14,15,16,and 17 landed on the Moon as the Command Modules with one astronaut aboard orbited the Moon. (Apollo 7, the first succesful flight stayed in Earth orbit, and Apollo 9 also stayed in Earth orbit to test the first Lunar Module that was manned.)

Get a high powered telescope and take a gander at the moon, and see if you can actually see old glory planted in the dirt.  Yes we landed on the moon.
