How many times have humans landed on the moon?
Man has landed on the moon six times. It's all Americans.

1, first time:1July 20, 969. Aldrin's hand-controlled lunar module successfully landed in the corner of the "Sea of tranquility" of the moon and landed on the moon successfully. The first close-up photo of the moon was taken, which is of great significance to scientific research.

2. The second time:1969165438+10/9. Apollo 12 missions always bring back more than 70 pounds (about 32 kilograms) of moon rocks, which scientists use to study the history and composition of the moon.

3. Third time: 197 1 year 1 month 3 1 day. The two spacewalks lasted 9 hours and 24 minutes. The third stage landed on the moon, collected 42 kilograms of materials, and used trolleys to transport rocks for the first time.

4. The fourth time:1971July 26th. The first lunar rover in astronauts' history made them go further on the moon than previous missions. They collected about 77 kilograms of moon rock samples. Panorama camera, gamma ray photometer, drawing camera, laser altimeter, mass spectrometer and sub-satellite launched after the mission in the scientific instrument module (SIM) are used to study the lunar surface environment in detail.

5. Fifth time: 1972 April 16. Apollo 16 splashed down in the Pacific Ocean. Its trip brought back more than 200 pounds of rocks from the moon. Astronauts John W. Young and Charles M. Duke Jr. spent 7 1 hour on the moon, setting a world record. At the same time, the third member of the team, Thomas K. Martin, is directing the ship to sail around the orbit.

6. Sixth time:1972 65438+February 7. Apollo 17 lunar module landed in Park Junglosu Canyon in Taurus on February 1972. Two astronauts worked there for three days and collected 243 pounds of rocks. This is the last mission of the Apollo program.

Extended data

China hasn't put a man on the moon yet. According to China's established plan, China's current priority is to explore the moon. The whole lunar exploration project is divided into three stages, the first stage is "circling", the second stage is "descending", and the third stage is "returning" in 20 17 years, and then the manned moon landing plan is carried out.

Chang ' e one

On 20071October 24th, China successfully launched the Chang 'e-1 lunar probe. The successful launch of Chang 'e I marks that China has become the fifth country in the world to successfully launch a lunar probe. Chang 'e-1 will run in a circular polar orbit 200 kilometers from the surface of the moon, with a working life of 1 year, and it is planned to fly around the moon for one year. Will not return to earth after the mission.

Chang 'e-1 is China's first artificial satellite orbiting the moon. Chang 'e-1 platform was developed on the basis of China's mature Dongfanghong-3 satellite platform, fully inherited the existing mature technologies and products of China Resources-2 Satellite and China Earth Resources Satellite, and made adaptive transformation. The so-called adaptive transformation is to innovate and break through many key technologies on the basis of inheritance.

The satellite platform was developed with the technology of Dongfanghong-3 satellite platform, and eight subsystems, including structure, propulsion, power supply, measurement and control, and data transmission, were modified adaptively. Chang 'e-1 is a 2m× 1.72m× 2.2m cube with solar panels on both sides. When fully unfolded, the maximum span is 18. 1m, and the weight is 2350kg. Payload includes CCD stereo camera, imaging spectrometer, solar cosmic rays monitor, low-energy particle detector and other scientific detection instruments.

Chang 'e II

At 20 10, 10, 1, 18: 59: 57, China launched the "Chang 'e II" lunar probe in xichang satellite launch center, which was a complete success.

Chang 'e III

The progress of Chinese astronauts is always unexpected. When Chinese people's pride in the complete success of Shenzhou-10 still reverberated in their hearts, Chang 'e-3 was ready to go.

Long space road, long Chinese dream. The sky in 20 13 AD is bound to leave more unforgettable memories for Chinese people. Early this summer, Shenzhou-10 docked with Tiangong-1 twice, and China won the applause of the world for his first space lecture. Early this winter, Chang 'e III will make China's first soft landing on the moon, which will be another new starting point for China's deep space exploration.

165438+1On October 26th, the State Bureau of Science and Technology for National Defense held a press conference and announced that Chang 'e-3 was launched in xichang satellite launch center in early February, and it will be the first time that an unmanned lunar surface will be soft-landed.

Moon, here we come-Chang 'e III is a key step in the three steps of China's lunar exploration project. This time, the China spacecraft will truly "land on the moon".

Chang 'e falls cold, Kyushu dreams together. Looking up at the night sky, China people are looking forward to the historic moment of China's space flight.
