The original Moon landing sites
"NASA contracted to have 15 flight-worthy Saturn V rockets produced. Apollo 11 achieved the first landing with the sixth Saturn V, leaving nine for follow-on landings. The following landing sites were chosen for these missions, planned to occur at intervals of approximately four months through July 1972."
Note: I've updated this list with the original tentative planned launch dates.
G-type Mission
Apollo 11: (G) Mare Tranquillitatis, July 1969
H-type missions
Apollo 12: (H1) Ocean of Storms (Surveyor 3 site), November 1969
Apollo 13: (H2) Fra Mauro Highlands, March 1970
Apollo 14: (H3) Littrow Crater, July 1970
Apollo 15: (H4) Censorinus Crater, November 1970
J-type missions, the extended stay missions
Apollo 16: (J1) Descartes Highlands or Tycho Crater (Surveyor 7 site), April 1971
Apollo 17: (J2) Marius Hills or Marius Hills volcanic domes, September 1971
Apollo 18: (J3) Copernicus crater or Schröter's Valley or Gassendi crater, February 1972, later July 1973
Apollo 19: (J4) Hadley Rille, July 1972, later December 1973
Apollo 20: (J5) Tycho Crater or Copernicus Crater or Marius Hills, December 1972, later July 1974
As we all know, plans were changed and missions were cancelled. But it's nice to see what was initially planned.
To compare with the actual landing sites and dates:
Apollo 12: (H1) Ocean of Storms (Surveyor 3 site), November 1969
Apollo 13: (H2) never landed, April 1970
Apollo 14: (H3) Fra Mauro, January-February 1971
Apollo 15: (J1) Hadley–Apennine, July-August 1971
Apollo 16: (J2) Descartes Highlands, April 1972
Apollo 17: (J3) Taurus–Littrow, December 1972

Apollo 20: Salainen tehtävä jolla noutaa Kuusta muinainen avaruusolentojen alus
Viewzonen mukaan tässä on kyse jättiläismäisestä avaruusaluksesta Kuussa, joka väittämän mukaan löydettiin ja valokuvattiin Apollo 15 -tehtävän aikana. Tarina tästä avaruusolentojen aluksesta on kiertänyt netissä noin vuodesta 2007. Aluksen piti olla erittäin suuri avaruusolentojen alus, joka oli syöksynyt maahan tai muuten hylätty Kuuhun muinaisina aikoina. Tämän aluksen olemassaolo on mysteeri ja sanotaan, että Kuuhun tehtiin […] https://eksopolitiikka.fi/eksopolitiikka/apollo-20-salainen-tehtava-jolla-noutaa-kuusta-muinainen-avaruusolentojen-alus/

Theoretically, Kane Chronicles and Magnus Chase can both take place regardless of whether or not HoO does - you just ignore the crossovers for KC and all you need for Magnus Chase is for Annabeth and Percy to be decently experienced enough to give advice bc they’re barely in it. ToA is the only series that depends on HoO’s placement, so moving back HoO to 2018/2019 puts ToA right in the Covid Pandemic, which actually fits perfectly if the god of medicine is gone from his post at the same time a pandemic happens.
