First manned Apollo flight. First manned Saturn 1B flight. First manned launch from Launch Complex 34 at the Kennedy Space Center. The Command Service Module (CSM) performed rendezvous and station-keeping maneuvers; extensive checkout of CSM systems were performed. A total of eight Service Propulsion Systems firings were accomplished causing several charges in the spacecraft's orbital path. Seven television transmissions from the spacecraft were broadcast live over commercial television, both in the U.S. and abroad. The Command Service Module seperated from the Lunar Module prior to re-entry and landed in the Atlantic near target point at 7:11am EST on October 22. The highly successful flight lasted 260 hours, nine minutes, nearly 11 days. America's first three-man mission logged more time in orbit than all other Soviet flights combined.
