Apollo was the name of the space programme.
It was called also Project Apollo.
Apollo 11 was the name and number of the
space flight, or space mission - the
eleventh of the programme, or project.
The flight was launched by a Saturn V rocket,
a three-stage rocket, from Cape Canaveral,
Florida.
Three astronauts were in the spacecraft.
The flight commander was astronaut Neil
Armstrong.
The spacecraft, called the command module
and given the name Columbia, was piloted
by astronaut Michael Collins.
Columbia went into orbit about the moon.
The lunar module, called Eagle, separated
from the command module and descended to
the moon surface with two astronauts.
The lunar module was piloted by astronaut
Edwin Aldrin.
The command module, commanded by Collins,
remained in orbit about the moon and waited
for the lunar module, with Aldrin and Armstrong,
to return.
The lunar module landed on the moon surface.
Astronaut Neil Armstrong left the module and
walked on the moon. Aldrin joined him.
Armstrong and Aldrin returned to the command
module and rejoined Collins.
The command module returned to Earth.
