Johnson prior to launch. Borman, along with astronauts William Anders, Lunar Module (LM) pilot, and James Lovell, Command Module (CM) pilot, launched aboard the Apollo 8 mission on December 21, 1968 and returned safely to Earth on December 27, 1968. The mission achieved operational experience and tested the Apollo command module systems, including communications, tracking, and life-support, in cis-lunar space and lunar orbit, and allowed evaluation of crew performance on a lunar orbiting mission. The crew photographed the lunar surface, both far side and near side, obtaining information on topography and landmarks as well as other scientific information necessary for future Apollo landings. All systems operated within allowable parameters and all objectives of the mission were achieved. <\/div><\/figcaption><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"display-block width-full\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"margin-0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hds-cover-wrapper hds-image-carousel-slide margin-bottom-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\"><figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-cover \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1243\" height=\"1920\" src=\"https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/s65-56313\/s65-56313~large.jpg?w=1243&h=1920&fit=clip&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Jim Lovell and Frank Borman sit together to review their mission requirements\" style=\"transform: scale(1.02); transform-origin: 43% 52%; object-position: 43% 52%; object-fit: cover;\" block_context=\"nasa-block\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/s65-56313\/s65-56313~large.jpg?w=1243&h=1920&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 1243w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/s65-56313\/s65-56313~large.jpg?w=194&h=300&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 194w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/s65-56313\/s65-56313~large.jpg?w=768&h=1186&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 768w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/s65-56313\/s65-56313~large.jpg?w=663&h=1024&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 663w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/s65-56313\/s65-56313~large.jpg?w=994&h=1535&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 994w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/s65-56313\/s65-56313~large.jpg?w=259&h=400&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 259w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/s65-56313\/s65-56313~large.jpg?w=388&h=599&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 388w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/s65-56313\/s65-56313~large.jpg?w=583&h=901&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 583w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/s65-56313\/s65-56313~large.jpg?w=777&h=1200&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 777w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1243px) 100vw, 1243px\" \/><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\"><div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">S65-56313 (2 Dec. 1965) — Gemini-7 astronauts James Lovell Jr. (center) and Frank Borman (right) review mission requirements for their Gemini-7 flight.
