The 3 astronauts who flew on Apollo 13 were Jim Lovell (Commander), Fred Haise (Lunar Module Pilot), and Jack Swigert (Command Module Pilot). Swigert replaced Thomas "Ken" Mattingly 3 days before the launch of Apollo 13 when it was discovered that the son of Charlie Duke, the backup, had caught the measles. Mattingly had not had the measles before, so he was replaced on the flight by Swigert. Apollo 13 was Swigert's only flight. He resigned from NASA in 1977. In 1982, he ran a successful campaign for House Representative from the state of Colorado. Unfortunately, he died of bone cancer 8 days before he was to be sworn in. Lovell and Haise are still alive.
Thomas Mattingly, who had been exposed to German Measles in the days before the flight (he ended up not contracting the disease himself). His back-up, Jack Swigert, replaced him at short notice.
Very few astronauts have walked on the moon, so this would be a really long list.
If you are referring to the Apollo 11 mission, Michael Collins stayed in orbit while Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin went down to the surface.
However, if you mean Apollo 13 (the "Successful Failure") the crew consisted of Jim Lovell, Fred Haise, and Jack Swigert.
CM pilot Richard F. "Dick" Gordon. He remained in the Command Module "Yankee Clipper" while Pete Conrad and Al Bean walked on the moon.

No. He wasn't an astronaut!
Astronauts are exploring the space and the moon , as all of us can not go out there. They are also exploring the space and the moon to find new things.
Astronaut Alan .B.Shepherd was the first American astronaut to go in space. He did a sub orbit of the earth in his Mercury spacecraft. He was the Apollo 14 commander.
Shuttles have only been designed to be in low earth orbit and do not have the capability to go to the moon. The Apollo missions were the ones that traveled to the moon, and there have been no lunar missions since 1973.
He was sent to the moon by the United States. At the time, there was a space race between the United States and the USSR to get to the moon and beyond first. This was the more political reason for him (and the whole crew) to be sent.
Astronaut Charles Pete Conrad went to the moon on Apollo 12 , in November 1969.
become an astronaut and go to the moon
That has an easy answer: Carl Sagan was a scientist, not an astronaut. He did not go to the moon.
No Thomas mattingly never went to the moon.
