No astronauts were killed in the Apollo 13 mission. The crew survived a life-threatening situation when an oxygen tank exploded onboard the spacecraft, but they were able to return safely to Earth with the help of ground control.
There was no Apollo 3 mission. The third manned mission to space was Apollo 7, which was crewed by astronauts Wally Schirra, Donn Eisele, and Walter Cunningham.
After returning from their Apollo missions, astronauts were not deported. They underwent debriefing and quarantine procedures to ensure they were not carrying any harmful pathogens. They were then allowed to return to their homes and families.
The Apollo space missions where people died were Apollo 1, which claimed the lives of astronauts Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee during a launchpad test in 1967.
As of September 2021, there are 4 surviving Apollo astronauts: Buzz Aldrin, David Scott, Charlie Duke, and Harrison Schmitt. The other Apollo astronauts have passed away.
No, there were no major incidents during the Apollo 11 moon landing mission. The mission was a success, with astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin becoming the first humans to walk on the moon while Michael Collins remained in orbit around the moon.
Apollo 1- a launch pad test resulted in a fire in the space capsule exacerbated by the fact that, at that time, NASA had a high oxygen atmosphere in space capsules, which greatly intensified the fire. The 3 astronauts in the capsule were killed, Grissom, White and Chaffee.They were the only Astronauts lost in the Apollo program.

No, no astronauts have been to the moon since the last Apollo mission in 1972. NASA's focus has shifted towards deep space exploration, with plans to send astronauts back to the moon and eventually to Mars in the near future.
There were no major delays during the Apollo 11 mission. The mission proceeded according to plan and successfully landed astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin on the Moon on July 20, 1969.
Yes, during the Apollo 12 mission, astronaut Alan Bean experienced problems with the telemetry system in his biomedical sensors and had to be monitored manually. This issue was resolved, and Bean continued the mission successfully.
Neil Armstrong did not conduct any specific scientific experiments on the moon. His primary mission during the Apollo 11 mission was to collect samples of lunar rocks and soil, set up scientific instruments, and document the moon's surface. The experiments were carried out by other astronauts on subsequent Apollo missions.
