Is it true that a majority of Americans supported the Apollo program throughout the 1960s?
Partly. One NASA history describes Apollo as a genuinely national endeavor with the nation engaged in the 1960s, while a book on the shuttle era notes NASA lacked public support for more ambitious missions after 1969. Neither provides polling data on whether a majority of Americans backed Apollo throughout the decade.
