The astronauts described it as "breathtaking" and exhilarating, given that they were where no one except their fellow astronauts had ever been. Most found the work schedule arduous and physically exhausting. James Irwin, who became the "first automobile passenger on the Moon" aboard the first Lunar Rover, also suffered the first "heart attack" on the Moon, which was obviously a major concern for the entire mission crew. He recovered but later had a heart problem back on Earth.

∙ 13y agoThe experience was described as surreal and awe-inspiring by the Apollo astronauts who landed and walked on the moon. They felt the stark contrast between the desolate lunar landscape and the beauty of Earth from space, and were struck by the stillness and silence of the moon's surface. The achievement was a culmination of intense training, teamwork, and dedication to push the boundaries of human exploration.
Astronauts for the Apollo 11 mission underwent extensive training in simulators to handle various scenarios they might encounter in space. They also studied the spacecraft systems and mission objectives in detail, practiced extravehicular activities, and participated in physical fitness training to prepare for the mission. Additionally, they received survival training in case they landed off course.
Yes, humans have been to the moon. The United States' Apollo program successfully landed astronauts on the moon six times between 1969 and 1972. The first manned mission to the moon was Apollo 11 in 1969.
As of now, no Indian has landed on the moon. Only government space agencies like NASA and the Soviet Union's space program have successfully landed astronauts on the moon.
There were a total of 29 astronauts in NASA's astronaut corps when the first people landed on the moon during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969. Only a select few of these astronauts were chosen for moon missions.
Apollo 11 was the spacecraft that carried astronauts Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins to the moon in 1969. It consisted of the Command Module, Service Module, and Lunar Module. The Command Module was cone-shaped and housed the astronauts during their journey.
The moon does not have a smell because it has no atmosphere to carry scents. When astronauts return from the moon, they report that the lunar soil smells like gunpowder due to the compounds present in the dust.
The Apollo capsule landed by parachute in the ocean. The shuttle lands like an airplane.
Because their oxygen cylinder exploded , that is why there was a shortage of it.

The names of the twelve astronauts who have landed on the moon and returned are Neil Armstrong, Edwin Aldrin, Charles Conrad, Alan Bean, Alan Shepherd, Edgar Mitchell, David Scott , Charlie Duke, James Irwin , John Young, Eugene Cernan, and Harrison Schmitt.
Probably it is a habit, as they have always walked like that.
No. The Apollo astronauts left instruments to measure the temperature deep below the surface of the moon. All readings indicate a cold moon. The Apollo 17 astronauts found volcanic material, indicating that the moon was hot when it formed, but quickly cooled.
The Apollo 8 astronauts described the moon as very inhospitable. The moon has no way to support humans, Everything man needs to live must be carried with him when he goes into space, that includes the moon. The astronauts who walked on the moon could feel the cold in the lunar shadows. They also felt the heat of the sun through theid suits.
Apollo astronauts appeared to "float" on the surface of the moon because the moon's gravity is much weaker than Earth's, approximately one-sixth of Earth's gravity. This lower gravity allowed the astronauts to move with ease and perform tasks with less effort, giving the appearance of floating.
After they landed on the moon, they checked up the craft if all was well. Then they went for their famous moon walk.
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.
Scientists and Explorers are alike because they both have to draw conclusions and search for the unexpected. So a way their different is that a scientist stays in a lab and tries to solve diseases with cures, but Explorers have to go and look for those things and another alike trait would be that scientists and explorers always have to have preparedness and risk taking. Scientists have a variety of ways to do things as do explorers. Ways that Scientists and Explorers are different would be that explorers have no boss; they can go out into the world and get lost with Mother Nature.
