Who Were the First Men on the Moon?
On July 20th, 1969, history was made when men walked on the Moon for the very first
time. The result of almost a decade’s worth of preparation, billions of dollars of
investment, strenuous technical development and endless training, the Moon Landing
was the high point of the Space Age and the single greatest accomplishment ever made.
Because they were the first men to walk on the Moon, Neil Armstrong and Edwin “Buzz”
Aldrin are forever written in history. And since that time, only ten men have had the
honor of following in their footsteps. But with plans to return to the Moon, a new generation of lunar explorers is sure to be
coming soon. So just who were these twelve men who walked on the Moon?

Prelude to the Moon Landing:

Before the historic Apollo 11 mission and Moon Landing took place, NASA conducted two manned missions to test the Apollo
spacecraft and the Saturn V rockets that would be responsible for bringing astronauts to the lunar surface.
The Apollo 8 mission – which took place on Dec. 21st, 1968 – would be the first time a spacecraft left Earth orbit, orbited the
Moon, and then returned safely to Earth.
During the mission, the three-astronaut crew – Commander Frank Borman, Command Module Pilot James Lovell, and Lunar
Module Pilot William Anders – spent three days flying to the Moon, then completed 10 circumlunar orbits in the course of 20
hours before returning to Earth on Dec. 27th.
During one of their lunar orbits, the crew made a Christmas Eve television broadcast where they read the first 10 verses from
the Book of Genesis. At the time, the broadcast was the most watched TV program in history, and the crew was
named Time magazine’s “Men of the Year” for 1968 upon their return.
On May 18th, 1969, in what was described as a “dress rehearsal” for a lunar landing, the Apollo 10 mission blasted off. This
involved testing all the components and procedures that would be used for the sake of the Moon Landing.
The crew – which consisted of Thomas P. Stafford as
