The Apollo Space missions are, by themselves, an incredible scientific feat and engineering breakthrough. Through these experiments, we gained a greater understanding of rocket technology and the void of space that exists above our heads. Many scientists had wondered what aspects of human life could operate in space. However, the main purpose of these experiments was to get man on the Moon and then get them safely back to Earth. As a result of these experiments, we have gained a much deeper understanding of the moon and what is going on on its surface.
