  2. This question has been already answered in YA.

    Six times. i.e. six missions that each landed two men on the moon (whilst a third remained orbiting the Moon).

    12 men have therefore landed on the moon. A jury-room-full of astronauts, if you like! As far as I know, they are all still alive.

    That's 2 each on each of the Apollo 11, 12, 14, 15, 16 and 17 missions.

    Apollo 11 and 12 were both in 1969.

    After Apollo 13 had to be aborted and the crew were lucky to get back to earth alive, there was a lull in missions till investigations as to what went wrong took place. There was no further mission attempted in 1970 therefore.

    Apollo 14 and 15 were both in 1971 and Apollo 16 and 17 were both in 1972. We have not been back since. Nor has any other country visited the Moon (yet).

    The twelve who landed on the Moon were:

    Apollo 11 July 20, 1969:

    Neil Armstrong & Buzz Aldrin

    Apollo 12 November 19-20, 1969:

    Pete Conrad & Alan Bean

    Apollo 14 February 5-6, 1971:

    Alan Shepard & Edgar Mitchell

    Apollo 15 July 31–August 2, 1971:

    David Scott & James Irwin

    Apollo 16 April 21-23, 1972:

    John W. Young & Charles Duke

    Apollo 17 December 11-14, 1972:

    Eugene Cernan & Harrison Schmitt


  3. COUNTRY LIST:

    United States = 9 Missions

    ALL OTHER COUNTRIES = ZERO

    (Japan may do it soon)

    Of the missions launched by the USA,

    3 Missions went around the Moon without landing.

    6 Missions had two each men on the landing phase while

    one man remained orbiting until the pair returned in the landing

    module. A total of 12 Men have walked on the Moon.

  6. Only Americans have sent men to the moon.

    Apollo 8 orbited with 3 men

    Apollo 10 orbited and tested the LM within 50,00 feet -3 men

    Apollo 11 first to land 2 men landed, 1 orbited

    Apollo 12 - 2 men landed 1 orbited

    Apollo 13 aborted 3 men "swingby"

    Apollo 14 2 men landed- 1 orbited
