Editors’ Review

Download.com staffJuly 30, 2026

Even 35 years later, the images of men walking on the moon maintain their magic. Mission: Apollo presents pictures of the manned moon missions, from liftoff to splashdown. For once, the lack of a soundtrack actually enhances a screensaver's impact, letting you imagine the stillness of space in the dramatic scenes. The download installs as the default screensaver and opens the Display control panel to the Screen Saver tab. The screensaver offers many settings, from choosing an image size to picking which transition effects to use. You can turn the informative captions on or off, and even choose their positions and fonts. The free Mission: Apollo screensaver can enhance your home or office computer.

But its a very good and stable screen saver -cool pictures. If you have spybot search & destroy- you can easily turn off or delete the screen saver control thingy it puts on your system tray
Great pictures, but...

Summary
This was an easy program to install and does show excellent quality pictures. However, there is no uninstall option and runs a screen saver control program in the task bar, which is not cool. I had to go to regedit and remove the entry to stop it from running and then deleted the file responsible, which installs into the Windows directory by the way. Very poor programming!

Summary
05 March 2002. I try to post reviews that are useful. Adaware v5.62 did not detect any Spyware after installing Mission Apollo. In addition, this appears to be a true "freeware" screensaver, no time limits or locked images. Image quality is quite good, and there are options for controlling the amount of time each image is displayed. Craig Knapp knappcek@worldnet.att.net

it even shows the "earth rise" the way it was shot (lunar horizon is verticle, not horizontal)
