Astronauts Dave Scott, Al Worden and James Irwin flew Apollo 15 on July 26 - Aug. 7, 1971. Scott and Irwin landed Falcon near the Apennine Mountains and drove the first lunar rover 17 miles over the surface. Later, Worden floated outside the command module Endeavor to make the first deep space spacewalk.

Astronauts Wally Schirra, Donn Eisele and Walt Cunningham flew Apollo 7 on Oct. 11-22, 1968. Apollo's command and service modules were tested in Earth orbit. This was the only manned Apollo flight launched atop a Saturn 1B from Pad 34 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.

Astronauts Frank Borman, Jim Lovell and Bill Anders flew Apollo 8 on Dec. 21-27, 1968. Riding the Saturn 5 Moon rocket for the first time, the crew flew their spacecraft all the way to the Moon and back. Circling the Moon 10 times, the crew scouted for future landing sites.

Astronauts Jim McDivitt, Dave Scott and Rusty Schweickart flew Apollo 9 on March 3-13, 1969. Remaining in Earth orbit, the trio tested the lunar module Spider and command module Gumdrop to ensure all would go well during a lunar voyage. The flight also featured Apollo's first spacewalk.

Astronauts Tom Stafford, John Young and Gene Cernan flew Apollo 10 on May 18-26, 1969. Stafford and Cernan took their lunar module Snoopy within 50,000 feet of the lunar surface as a dress rehearsal for the real thing on Apollo 11. Young remained in the command module Charlie Brown.

Astronauts Jim Lovell, Fred Haise and Jack Swigert flew Apollo 13 on April 11-17, 1970. During the misson an oxygen tank inside the service module exploded, prompting all of Odyssey's systems to be shut down. This forced the crew to use the lunar module Aquarius as a lifeboat in order to safely return to Earth.

Original Mercury astronaut Alan Shepard, the first American in space, commanded Apollo 14 with Stuart Roosa and Ed Mitchell on Jan. 31 - Feb. 9, 1971.

Astronauts John Young, Tom Mattingly and Charles Duke flew Apollo 16 on April 16-27, 1972. Young and Duke landed Orion in the Descartes Highlands, drove their own lunar rover, and later watched Mattingly crawl outside the command module Casper to make a spacewalk on the way home to Earth.
