Apollo 11 modules in lunar orbit, 20 July 1969. View of the Command and Service Module (CSM) of the Apollo 11 spacecraft seen from Apollo 11's Lunar Module (LM) while both were in orbit around the Moon. They had travelled to the Moon joined together, and had separated to allow the LM to move away and then descend to the Moon's surface. Module separation took place on 20 July 1969. The Apollo 11 mission (16-24 July 1969) was the first landing by humans on the Moon, with US astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin descending to the surface in the Lunar Module, while Michael Collins remained in orbit in the Command and Service Module. | |
