The paragraph preceding the passage most likely discusses? Just two months after the flight of Apollo 10, the Apollo 11 astronauts made their historic landing on the surface of the Moon.

Answer 1

The question asks what the preceding paragraph most likely discusses based on the given passage. The passage talks about the Apollo 11 mission to the Moon and the scientific findings from the samples collected. Since the passage starts by mentioning Apollo 11 following Apollo 10, it implies a sequence of events in the Apollo space program. The most logical topic for the preceding paragraph would be the beginning or earlier aspects of the Apollo program, leading up to the events described in the passage. Therefore, the correct answer is 'the inception of the Apollo space program'.
