Apollo was NASA's third human spaceflight program and the first to put people on the Moon, specifically with its 11th mission. Launched on July 16, 1969, astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the lunar surface four days later, while Michael Collins remained in orbit, with Armstrong the first to lay foot on the sandy surface. "That's one small step for man," Armstrong said, one giant leap for mankind.
