    HISTORY
    Command module Columbia (CM-107) is the spacecraft that served as the command moduleduring Apollo 11, which was the first mission to land humans on the Moon. Columbia is the onlyspacecraft of the Apollo 11 mission that returned to the Earth. The name Columbia was firstsuggested to Michael Collins by Julian Scheer, NASA assistant administrator of public affairsduring the Apollo program. Scheer mentioned the name, in passing, in a phone conversation,saying "some of us up here have been kicking around Columbia." Collins initially thought it was"a bit pompous" but the name eventually stuck as he could not think of a better alternative andhis crewmates Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong had no objections. Collins was also influenced toaccept the name because of its similarity to Columbiad, the name of the space gun in JulesVerne's 1865 science fiction novel From the Earth to the Moon.
