History of Space Exploration: Chapter 5, Exercise 2 — Possible Solution ====================================================================== CORRECTION Twelve people walked on the Moon, across six successful landings (Apollo article). Apollo 1 never flew. CONFUSION The Saturn V article says the programme landed "24 astronauts on the Moon across nine missions." Twenty-four appears to count everyone who went to the Moon, including those who only orbited, but the source does not say, so this is an inference.
