The Apollo program was the third human spaceflight program undertaken by NASA, on behalf of the United States of America. Its goal — “to land humans on the Moon and return them safely to Earth [within the decade of the 1960s]” (in the words of U.S. President John F. Kennedy) — was accomplished on the 20th of July, 1969, with the Apollo 11 landing of astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and with Michael Collins orbiting above waiting to return his crewmates to Earth.

To date, it is the only spaceflight which have landed humans on another world, and thus is widely respected and an inspiration to future spaceflights. The program used the Apollo spacecraft and Saturn launch vehicle, and was conducted during the years 1961 – 1975. It continued into the early 1970s to carry out the initial hands-on scientific exploration of the Moon, with a total of six successful landings. The later Skylab program and the joint American-Soviet Apollo-Soyuz Test Project used equipment originally produced for Apollo, and are often considered to be part of the overall program. As of 2007, there has not been any further human spaceflight beyond low earth orbit since the last mission in the Apollo program, Apollo 17.
