Never launched. On 27 January 1967, a fire in the command module during a launch pad test killed the crew and destroyed the module. This flight was originally designated AS-204, and was renamed to Apollo 1 at the request of the crew's families.

Saturn IB (AS-204)
Apollo 4 Testing
Saturn V AS-501
9 November 1967 12:00 GMT First flight of Saturn V rocket; successfully demonstrated S-IVB third stage restart and tested CM heat shield at lunar re-entry speeds.
Apollo 5 Testing

Saturn IB AS-204
First flight of LM; successfully fired descent engine and ascent engine; demonstrated "fire-in-the-hole" landing abort test.
Apollo 6
Saturn V AS-502
Second flight of Saturn V; severe "pogo" vibrations caused two second-stage engines to shut down prematurely, and third stage restart to fail. SM engine used to achieve high-speed re-entry, though less than Apollo 4. NASA identified vibration fixes and declared Saturn V man-rated.

Note: See Mission Patches Section 1a for Cancelled Apollo Missions 18,19,20, 21 There is some controversy into whether these flights took place or not, or even if the patches are legitimate and some online sources suggest there may have been a cover-up via Black Opps or Secret Missions. Only time will tell for the truth to come out if this is the case...However the patches above are legitimate.
