The Apollo program was a series of space missions led by NASA, aimed at landing humans on the Moon and returning them safely to Earth. Apollo 11 was the most famous mission, during which Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the Moon on July 20, 1969. The program continued with subsequent missions, advancing our knowledge of the Moon and space travel.
The Apollo missions not only helped secure the United States' victory in the space race but also contributed to the development of space technology, such as the Lunar Module and various spacecraft. The legacy of Apollo continues to inspire space exploration today, especially with NASA's Artemis program aiming to return humans to the Moon in the near future.
