N.A,S.A used two types of vehicles on the moon, one was hand pulled by the Apollo 14 astronauts, and Apollo15,16, 17 used a solar powered vehicle on the moon.
Here to the question is not at all clear . Which mission are you asking about. The Mercury, the Gemini or the Apollo mission, or are you asking of the Skylab mission or the Space Shuttle mission?
All Apollo missions were manned.
Names have nothing to do with a space mission. They are just an arbitrary way to keep track of each mission. Some of the names of the past are Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, Surveyor, and Voyager. They all accomplished great things in space.
No, and he never returned to space again either. He left NASA soon after the moon landing Apollo 11 mission.
It was Apollo 1 where all three died in a fire.
The Apollo 12 moon mission went exactly according to plan and nothing went rock with it luckily. it went all wrong for Apollo13.
It was Apollo 1 and Apollo 13 that all went wrong.

The Apollo-Soyuz mission was a program to establish spacecraft compatibility between the US and USSR. With an eye toward future space missions (such as the International Space Station), systems and procedures were tested that included connection and docking of space vehicles made by the two countries. Although the later Space Shuttle was not designed to dock with Soyuz, the ISS was fitted with bays to accommodate all existing types of orbital craft.
No. There have been no moon missions since Apollo 17 in 1972. All the manned missions since have been in low earth orbit and have been related to the International Space Station, space shuttle, Skylab, and the Apollo Soyuz mission.
Apollo 10 holds the record for the highest speed attained by a manned vehicle (39, 897 kph). Apollo 10 was the first mission broadcast in colour from space. The lunar module for Apollo 10 is still in space (orbiting the sun) - all the others crashed into the moon or burnt up in the Earth's atmosphere.
Apollo 10 was the fourth manned mission in the American Apollo space program. It was an F type mission---its purpose was to be a "dry run" for the Apollo 11 mission, testing all of the procedures and components of a Moon landing without actually landing on the Moon itself. The mission included the second crew to orbit the Moon and an all-up test of the lunar module (LM) in lunar orbit. The LM came to within 8.4 nmi (15.6 km) of the lunar surface during practice maneuvers.
