This is a set of 2 metal earth model kits. Apollo CSM with LM: Two spacecraft were required for the Apollo 11 moon landing - the Lunar Surface Module (LM) and the Command Service Module (CSM). Once in lunar orbit, the two will separate and LM will land while CSM waits in orbit. After liftoff from the lunar surface, the LM's ascent stage will rendezvous and dock with the waiting CSM, and the astronauts will return to the main spacecraft and return home. It sounds almost impossible, but it was July 20, 1969. Difficulty: Challenging - 3.5 sheets [Apollo Saturn V with Gantry] Saturn V: President Kennedy said, ``I chose to go to the moon.'' That's how the Saturn V got there! It is a three-stage expendable rocket developed by NASA in support of the US Apollo space program from 1967 to 1973. The "V" refers to the five massive F-1 rocket engines clustered at the bottom of the Saturn V's first stage. Difficulty: Moderate - 2 pieces
