Explore 60+ years of lunar history. Interactive 3D globe, mission videos, astronaut bios, and a quiz. Every Moon mission — in your pocket. Moon Missions — Explore Lunar History From the first probes of the late 1950s to the latest crewed expeditions, Moon Missions brings the complete history of lunar exploration to your fingertips. Whether you're a space enthusiast, a student, or simply curious about humanity's greatest adventure, this app covers every mission — the triumphs, the tragedies, and the extraordinary people behind them. 3D LUNAR GLOBE The interactive 3D globe is your home screen. Every landing site, soft landing, and impact is pinned on the surface. Rotate and zoom the Moon freely, then tap any pin to jump straight to that mission. You can also navigate to any landing site directly from the mission details. EXPLORE EVERY MISSION Browse over 100 missions spanning more than six decades, organized by decade. From the Soviet Luna programme and the iconic Apollo landings to modern missions from China, India, Japan, and ESA — every chapter of the story is here. MISSION VIDEOS Watch archive footage for Apollo and other key missions, streamed directly in the app. MEET THE CREWS Discover the astronauts who flew to the Moon. Read their biographies, view their portraits, and see which missions they flew on. Their birth dates, life stories, and the missions they flew are all here. Tap any photo to view it full screen. MISSION IMAGES Every mission has its own image — mission patches, spacecraft photos, and NASA imagery. Tap to view full screen with pinch-to-zoom. ON THIS DAY Open the app and discover if a lunar mission launched — or an astronaut was born — on today's date in history. LUNAR QUIZ Test your knowledge of Moon missions with a built-in quiz covering mission facts, dates, crews, and more. SEARCH AND FILTER Find missions instantly by name, country, or astronaut. Filter by nation — USA, Soviet Union, China, India, Japan, ESA and more. Toggle between a visual grid and a compact list view. Optionally hide unmanned missions to focus on crewed flights. WORKS OFFLINE All mission data, patches, and images are bundled with the app. Videos stream when you're connected. BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED A dark space-inspired theme puts the focus on the missions. Designed for both iPhone and iPad. Mission data sourced from publicly available historical records. Images represent mission patches, spacecraft photography, and NASA imagery.
