I am interested in how many spacecraft have been to the Moon. On our web site we have (what I hope is) a complete listing of missions
http://www.planetary.org/explore/topics/ou...n/missions.html I counted the number of spacecraft from this list and came up with a number I have been quoting in public venues. But, it is a tricky business. Failed spacecraft count, landers and rovers flying together but separating on the surface count as two, etc. So if anyone would care to give me their count I would appreciate it. |
