Stafford, Command Service Module Pilot: John W. Young, Lunar Module Pilot: Eugene A. Cernan . Patch size 4”

Apollo 12  $4.25

Apollo 12 was the world's second manned lunar landing. The flight demonstrated the spacecraft's pinpoint landing capability, touching down within 600 feet of the Surveyor 3 spacecraft. The Surveyor 3 was an unmanned U.S. satellite that soft-landed on the Moon on April 17, 1967. It had returned TV pictures and data on the lunar surface by digging up a soil sample with its scoop. The crew performed two EVA's and collected rock samples as they walked more than a mile from the spacecraft.

Apollo 15  $4.25

This flight marked the world's fourth lunar landing and return mission. After a 25-minute delay in the CSM-LM undocking, the Lunar Module "Falcon" landed on the Moon July 30 at 6:16 PM EDT. This was the first mission to deploy the Lunar Roving Vehicle, which traveled 17.2 miles across the lunar surface. Apollo 15 Launch Date: July 26, 1971, 9:34 AM EDT Launch Vehicle: Saturn V Crew: Commander.- David R. Scott, Command Service Module Pilot: Alfred M. Worden, Lunar Module Pilot: James B. Irwin. Patch size 4”

Apollo Program Patch $2.99

In July, 1960 NASA was preparing to implement its long range plans for a manned lunar project. The name "APOLLO" was chosen by NASA from ancient Greek mythology. Apollo was the god of archery, prophecy, poetry, music and god of the Sun. On the emblem, the Earth and Moon flank a large stylized letter "A" against a background of stars. Constellation Orion, The Mighty Hunter, is positioned so its three central stars form the bar of the letter "A". The face of the Moon represents the mythical god, Apollo. Patch size 3” format

Apollo 7 $4.25

First manned Apollo flight. First manned Saturn 1B flight. First manned launch from Launch Complex 34 at the Kennedy Space Center. The Command Service Module (CSM) performed rendezvous and station-keeping maneuvers; extensive checkout of CSM systems were performed. A total of eight Service Propulsion Systems firings were accomplished causing several charges in the spacecraft's orbital path. The Command Service Module seperated from the Lunar Module prior to re-entry and landed in the Atlantic near target point at 7:11am EST on October 22. America's first three-man mission logged more time in orbit than all other Soviet flights combined. Apollo 7 Launch Date: October 11, 1968 11:03am EST Launch Vehicle: Saturn 1B Crew: Commander: Walter M. Schirra,Jr. Command Serive Module Pilot: Donn F. Eisele Lunar Module Pilot: Walter Cunningham Patch size 4” format

First launch of the complete Apollo configuration: Saturn V vehicle, Command Service Module (CSM) and Lunar Module (LM). Successful docking in space of CSM and LM. First firing of LM ascent and descent engines in space. First transfer by U.S. astronaut from one space vehicle to another. First separation, rendezvous and re-docking of two spacecraft. First EVA by an astronaut (Schweickart) completely free of spacecraft life support equipment. Splashdown occurred on March 13, completing a flight of 241 hours, one minute (10 days, one hour, one minute). Apollo 9 Launch Date: March 3,1969, 11:00 AM EST Launch Vehicle: Saturn V Crew: James A. McDivitt, Command Service Module Pilot: David R. Scott, Lunar Module Pilot: Russell L. Schweickart. Patch size 4” format.

Apollo 11  $4.25

World's first lunar landing and return. All three stages of the Saturn V fired normally and on time. The Command Service Module (CSM) separated, turned and docked with the Lunar Module (LM). A single spacecraft firing was utilized to escape Earth orbit and set a course to the Moon. In the vicinity of the Moon, the crew sent back a 29-minute color TV transmission. The Commander and the LM pilot undocked the LM and descended to the Moon's surface, landing on the Sea of Tranquility on July 20, at 4:17 PM EDT. Six hours later at 10:55 PM EDT, Neil Armstrong became the world's first human to walk on the Moon. Apollo 11 Launch Date: July 16, 1969, 9:32 AM EST Launch Vehicle: Saturn V Crew: Commander: Neil A. Armstrong, Command Service Module Pilot: Michael Collins Lunar Module Pilot: Edwin E. Aldrin Jr

Apollo 13  $4.25

Apollo 13 was planned to be the third manned lunar landing. Lunar trajectory insertion occurred on schedule. The Command Service Module (CSM) then turned and docked with the Lunar Module (LM) and continued on toward the Moon. Then, almost 56 hours after liftoff, a fire broke out in the #2 oxygen tank in the CSM. This led to the loss of all fuel cell power and the other system failures. The mission was aborted and the task of getting the astronauts home safely began. The CSM was powered down and the astronauts entered the LM and used it as a "lifeboat" on the long journey home. As the crippled spacecraft neared Earth, the astronauts re-entered the CSM and jettisoned the Service Module and the Lunar Module. Fortunately, re-entry into Earth's atmosphere occurred normally. The astronauts were safely recovered. Apollo 13 Launch Date: April 11, 1970, 2:13 PM EST Launch Vehicle: Saturn V Crew: Commander: James A. Lovell, Jr. Command Service Module Pilot: John L. Swigert, Jr. Lunar Module Pilot: Fred W. Haise, Jr.

Apollo 14  $4.25

This flight marked the third lunar landing and return mission. First use of mobile equipment transporter (a small two-wheeled handcart) on the lunar surface. Time on the lunar surface, distance traversed and payload returned from the Moon were considerably greater than previous missions. After a delayed liftoff and modified translunar trajectory, the Lunar Module "Antares" landed on the Moon on February 5 at 4:18 AM EST. Landing occurred in the Fra Mauro highlands, just 87 feet from its target point. Astronauts Shepard and Mitchell made two excursions on the lunar surface totaling nine hours, 24 minutes, while Roosa conducted scientific experirnents from the CSM in lunar orbit.
