Technically, the first moon landing was not Apollo 11, but the Soviet Luna 2 mission in 1959. However, the U.S. mission that followed on July 20, 1969 was the first time humans walked on the moon -and that's what people remember most!

Another interesting thing that can't really be ignored if we are going to talk about missions to the moon is how many people believe the whole thing was a giant hoax!

Whatever you think about the moon landing or space program, what remains interesting is how much of a mystery most of the universe is, even to the most knowledgeable scientists.
