An interesting fact about Alabama is that it is home to the first ever rocket to send humans to the moon. The Saturn V rocket, which was developed at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, played a crucial role in NASA's Apollo missions. In 1969, the Saturn V rocket launched Apollo 11, which successfully carried astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins to the Moon. Huntsville is often referred to as "The Rocket City" because of its key role in the U.S. space program.
