Surveyor Night Launch Credit:

In November 1967, an Atlas Centaur rocket launched the Surveyor 6 spacecraft toward the Moon. The Surveyor series of robotic probes were the first US spacecraft to achieve soft landings on the Moon. These missions paved the way for the Apollo program. Atlas Centaur rockets were workhorses, launching many lunar and planetary probes in the 1960s and 70s.
