Apollo 11 was the first manned mission to land on the Moon. It was the fifth human spaceflight of the Apollo program, and the third human voyage to the moon. Launched on July 16, 1969, it carried Commander Neil Armstrong, Command Module Pilot Michael Collins and Lunar Module Pilot Edwin 'Buzz' Aldrin. On July 20, Armstrong and Aldrin became the first humans to set foot on the Moon, while Collins orbited above.

The mission fulfilled President John F. Kennedy's goal of "landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the Earth" by the end of the 1960s.

, Neil Alden (1930- ), American astronaut, born in Wapakoneta, Ohio. He served as a pilot in the United States Navy during the Korean War. After graduating (1955) from Purdue University, he joined the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), then known as the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, serving as a civilian test pilot at Edwards Air Force Base, Lancaster, California. In 1962 he became the first civilian to enter the astronaut training programme. In March 1966 Armstrong was command pilot of the Gemini 8 mission, which accomplished the first physical joining of two orbiting spacecraft. In July 1969 Armstrong, as commander of the Apollo 11 lunar mission, became the first person to set foot on the Moon. His companions on the mission were Edwin E. Aldrin, Jr., and Michael Collins. In 1971 he became Professor of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Cincinnati.

Newpapers and magzines had informed:
---Armstrog announced, in a voice heard all over the world, "The Eagle has landed". It was 4:14 P.M., July 19, 1969.---

However, there have been reports from another lobby, circulating quite a long time, whether really the Apollo mission landed on moon.

So, can't say...whether this date & time is correct...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
By the way, the dates mentioned by others as July 20 is not correct...it was July 19th, 1969.
