SIX SPECTACULAR LANDINGS
Apollo astronauts explored six stunning sites on the Moon, from the Sea of Tranquility to Taurus-Littrow. The Apollo 11 and 12 missions landed in a relatively flat region that posed the fewest risks. Apollo 14 went to a hilly locale of immense geologic interest. The astronauts on the last three missions, Apollo 15, 16, and 17, landed in spectacular settings and stayed for three days, exploring the varied terrain in an electric powered lunar rover.
THE MOON COMING INTO FOCUS
The Apollo missions capped off four centuries of lunar exploration that began with the first telescopic observations of the Moon in the 1600s. Early observers were convinced that the Moon was a place much like Earth, with seas, continents, forests, and even cities. Astronomers realized that the Moon was another world of dry rock as telescope technology improved.
Still, mysteries remained. What made the craters? What is on the far side of the Moon? Does the Moon harbor life? These and other mysteries persisted until the Space Age when automatic probes traveled to the Moon, then when humans went to explore its secrets in person.
AFTER APOLLO
Fewer than a dozen spacecraft (all automatic probes) have been back to the Moon since the end of the Apollo program in 1972. Now, a new generation of explorers is preparing for lunar adventures. NASA's vision for space exploration includes human missions to the Moon and beyond to Mars. Artemis is NASA's new lunar exploration program, which will send astronauts back to the Moon in new and better ways, and prepare humans for missions to Mars. Did you know that Artemis was Apollo's twin sister and the goddess of the Moon in Greek mythology
