Here's some information about the Apollo crews, formatted in Markdown with linked subjects:
The Apollo program was a U.S. effort to land humans on the Moon. It involved a series of crewed missions that achieved this goal.
Apollo 1: This mission was originally designated AS-204. The crew, consisting of Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee, tragically died in a fire during a launch rehearsal test. This mission never flew.
Apollo 4 & 6: These were unmanned test flights of the Saturn V rocket.
Apollo 5: This was an unmanned test of the Apollo Lunar Module (LM).
Apollo 7: The first crewed Apollo mission to successfully reach Earth orbit. The crew comprised of Walter Schirra, Donn F. Eisele, and Walter Cunningham.
Apollo 8: This mission was the first crewed spacecraft to orbit the Moon. The crew was Frank Borman, James Lovell, and William Anders.
Apollo 9: This mission tested the Lunar Module in Earth orbit. The crew included James McDivitt, David Scott, and Rusty Schweickart.
Apollo 10: A "dress rehearsal" for the Moon landing, orbiting the Moon and testing the Lunar Module's descent to just above the lunar surface. The crew consisted of Thomas P. Stafford, John Young, and Eugene Cernan.
Apollo 11: The first Moon landing. Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the Moon, while Michael Collins orbited in the Command Module.
Apollo 12: The second Moon landing with Pete Conrad and Alan Bean walking on the Moon, and Richard F. Gordon Jr. orbiting in the Command Module.
Apollo 13: Suffered a critical failure during its mission to the Moon, but the crew (James Lovell, Jack Swigert, and Fred Haise) safely returned to Earth.
Apollo 14: Landed on the Moon with Alan Shepard and Edgar Mitchell performing lunar surface activities. Stuart Roosa remained in lunar orbit.
Apollo 15: This mission involved extensive lunar surface exploration with the use of the Lunar Roving Vehicle. The crew included David Scott, James Irwin, and Alfred Worden.
Apollo 16: Continued lunar surface exploration. The crew consisted of John Young, Thomas K. Mattingly, and Charles Duke.
Apollo 17: The final Apollo mission to land on the Moon. The crew included Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt, with Ronald Evans orbiting in the Command Module.
The Apollo crews were selected from a group of highly skilled and trained astronauts. Their courage, skill, and dedication were instrumental in the success of the Apollo program and in achieving President Kennedy's goal of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to Earth before the end of the 1960s.
