He was the commander of Apollo 8, the first crewed spacecraft to leave Earth's gravitational sphere of influence and the first mission to fly around the Moon, and together with crewmates Jim Lovell and William Anders, became the first of 24 humans to do so, for which he was awarded the Congressional Space Medal of Honor.
