The design, development and qualification of the reaction control system for the Apollo lunar module are described. The lunar module reaction control system used many of the components developed and qualified for the service module reaction control system. The system was qualified for manned flight during the unmanned Apollo 5 mission on January 22 and 23, 1968, and has operated satisfactorily during all manned lunar module flights including Apollo 11, the first manned landing on the moon.
