Jim Lovell, the backup commander, mentioned the idea of eagles, a symbol of the United States. Collins liked the idea and found a painting by artist Walter A. The idea of an olive branch, a symbol of peace, came from a computer expert at the simulators. He mentioned the idea to Collins in a conversation and Collins could not think of anything better. During the training for Apollo 11, Slayton offered to get Collins back into the crew sequence after the flight.
Collins would almost certainly have been the backup commander of Apollo 14 , followed by commander of Apollo 17 , but he told Slayton he did not want to travel to space again if Apollo 11 was successful. The difficult schedule of an astronaut strained his family life. He wanted to help achieve John F. Kennedy's goal of landing on the Moon within the decade and had no interest in further exploration of the Moon once the goal had been achieved.
The assignment was given to Cernan. An estimated one million spectators watched the launch of Apollo 11 from the highways and beaches in the vicinity of the launch site. Millions more listened to radio broadcasts.

After one and a half orbits, the S-IVB third-stage engine pushed the spacecraft onto its trajectory toward the Moon.

After it was extracted, the combined spacecraft headed for the Moon, while the rocket stage flew on a trajectory past it. On July 19 at UTC, Apollo 11 passed behind the Moon and fired its service propulsion engine to enter lunar orbit.

At Eagle separated from Columbia. During his day flying solo around the Moon, Collins never felt lonely. Although it has been said "not since Adam has any human known such solitude", [92] Collins felt very much a part of the mission. In his autobiography he wrote "this venture has been structured for three men, and I consider my third to be as necessary as either of the other two". During the 48 minutes of each orbit he was out of radio contact with Earth; the feeling he reported was not loneliness, but rather "awareness, anticipation, satisfaction, confidence, almost exultation".
One of Collins' first tasks was to identify the lunar module on the ground. To give Collins an idea where to look, Mission Control radioed that they believed the lunar module landed about four miles off target. Each time he passed over the suspected lunar landing site, he tried in vain to find the lunar module. On his first two orbits on the far side of the Moon, Collins performed maintenance activities such as dumping excess water produced by the fuel cells and preparing the cabin for Armstrong and Aldrin to return.
Just before he reached the far side on the third orbit, Mission Control informed Collins there was a problem with the temperature of the coolant. If it became too cold, parts of Columbia might freeze. Mission Control advised him to assume manual control and implement Environmental Control System Malfunction Procedure Instead, Collins flicked the switch on the offending system from automatic to manual and back to automatic again, and carried on with normal housekeeping chores, while keeping an eye on the temperature.

When Columbia came back around to the near side of the Moon again, he was able to report that the problem had been resolved. For the next couple of orbits, he described his time on the far side of the Moon as "relaxing". While the flight plan called for Eagle to meet up with Columbia , Collins was prepared for certain contingencies in which he would fly Columbia down to meet Eagle.
In a July interview with The Guardian , Collins said that he was very worried about Armstrong and Aldrin's safety. He was also concerned in the event of their deaths on the Moon, he would be forced to return to Earth alone and, as the mission's sole survivor, be regarded as "a marked man for life". Though the chance of bringing back pathogens from the lunar surface was believed to be remote, it was still considered a possibility.
On August 13, the three astronauts rode in parades in their honor in New York and Chicago, with about six million attendees. After the crew returned to the U. Nor, unlike some of his predecessors, did he act as the department spokesperson. Instead, as the head of the State Department 's Bureau of Public Affairs, his role was that of managing relations with the public at large. Collins took over at a very difficult time. The Vietnam War was going badly, and the invasion of Cambodia and the Kent State shootings had triggered a wave of protests and unrest across the country.
He had no illusions about his ability to change minds, but attempted to engage with the public all the same, playing on his Apollo 11 fame. In a commencement speech at Saint Michael's College in Vermont, he told his audience that "Farmers speak to farmers, students to students, business leaders to other business leaders, but this intramural talk serves mainly to mirror one's beliefs, to reinforce existing prejudices, to lock out opposing views".
Collins realized he was not enjoying the job, and secured President Nixon's permission to become the Director of the National Air and Space Museum. Since this was not done, there was no money for the museum building. The Sputnik crisis and the resulting Space Race led to a surge of public interest in space exploration. The Freedom 7 and Friendship 7 Project Mercury spacecraft were donated to the Smithsonian, and 2,, visitors descended on the Arts and Industries Building when they were put on display in The museum was renamed the National Air and Space Museum in , but there was still no funding to build it.
An exhibition of a Moon rock attracted , visitors in one month. The job had a clearly defined and tangible goal: to obtain Congressional funding, and to build the museum. In addition to cost pressure, there was also severe time pressure, as the museum was scheduled to open on July 4, , as part of celebrations of the upcoming United States Bicentennial. The design by architect Gyo Obata of the St.
Everything was fast-tracked. Contracts were awarded as soon as each component of the design was complete. This allowed the first contract to be awarded within five months of the start of design. The design was completed in just nine months, and all contracts were awarded within a year of the start of design.

Collins held the directorship until , [] when he stepped down to become undersecretary of the Smithsonian Institution. Air Force Reserve.
He attained the rank of major general in , and retired in The New York Times writer John Wilford wrote that it is "generally regarded as the best account of what it is like to be an astronaut. Collins has also written Liftoff: The Story of America's Adventure in Space , a history of the American space program, Mission to Mars , a non-fiction book on human spaceflight to Mars, and Flying to the Moon and Other Strange Places , revised and re-released as Flying to the Moon: An Astronaut's Story , a children's book on his experiences.

The song uses Collins' feeling that he was blessed to have the type of solitude of being truly separated from all other human contact in contrast with modern society's lack of perspective. The song embraces his role as an integral part of the Apollo 11 mission with the chorus, "Sometimes you take the fame, sometimes you sit back stage, but if it weren't for me them boys would still be there. Collins provided narration for the Google Doodle that commemorated the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11's mission to the Moon.
