Command Module, Columbia, was the living quarters for the
three-person crew during most of the first manned lunar landing
mission in July 1969".</p>
<br>
<p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;">The {Qu'
wa'DIch} is obviously the subject of {SaqmeH}. It can't be the
{Qu' wa'DIch HochHom} since the goal wasn't for "almost all of
the mission to land on the moon".</p>
<br>
<p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;">And then we
have the {HochHom turlu'taHvIS} which is used to express the
"during most of the first manned lunar landing mission".</p>
<br>
<p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;">However, since
the subject of the {SaqmeH} is only the {Qu' wa'DIch}, shouldn't
there be a comma right after it ?</p>

<p><b>maSDaq SaqmeH Qu' wa'DIch HochHom turlu'taHvIS<br>
</b><i>while most of the first moon-landing mission was being
carried out</i></p>
<p>This is a single <i>while</i> clause.</p>
<p><b>X turlu'taHvIS</b><br>
<i>while one does X</i></p>
<p>The X is a noun phrase, <b>maSDaq SaqmeH Qu' wa'DIch HochHom</b>
<i>most of the first mission-to-land-on-the-moon.</i></p>
<p>A <b>SaqmeH Qu'</b> is a <i>landing mission,</i> a <i>mission
for landing.</i> Remember that purposes clauses can be attached
to nouns that are not the subject of that clause. <b>Qu'</b> is
not the subject of <b>SaqmeH.</b><br>
</p>
<p> If that mission happens at the moon, it is a <b>maSDaq SaqmeH
Qu'</b><i> landing mission on the moon.</i> The locative is
added to the verb as usual. The fact that this verb is part of a
dependent clause is irrelevant.<br>
</p>
<p>It's the first moon-landing mission, <b>maSDaq SaqmeH Qu'
wa'DIch.</b></p>
<p>We're only talking about <i>most</i> of the mission: <b>maSDaq
SaqmeH Qu' wa'DIch HochHom.</b><br>
