What was the name of the lunar module that landed on the Moon during Apollo 11?

• A. Eagle
• B. Falcon
• C. Intrepid
• D. Discovery

Answer: (A)

The name of the lunar module that landed on the Moon during Apollo 11 is Eagle. This two-stage lander separated from the command module in lunar orbit, touched down in the Sea of Tranquility on July 20, 1969, and carried Armstrong and Aldrin to the surface, with Armstrong famously saying, “The Eagle has landed.”

The other names aren’t associated with Apollo 11’s lunar module—Falcon isn’t the LM for this mission, Intrepid was the lunar module for Apollo 12, and Discovery is the name of a Space Shuttle, not an Apollo lunar lander.
