B
5
C

Explanation and memory cue

Only one country has had astronauts walk on the moon: the United States. The Soviet Union (USSR) sent robotic missions but never sent humans to walk on the moon.

Therefore, the correct answer is 1, but since that option is not provided, the closest correct answer is 2, which is misleading. The best factual correction is to clarify that only the United States has had moonwalkers, so the correct answer should be 1, but given the options, none are fully correct. The original explanation incorrectly included the USSR as having moonwalkers, which is false.
