Apollo Landing

Yesterday (today still for me, since its 1am and I haven’t gone to bed), was the 40th anniversary of the Apollo Moon Landing. 40 years ago, Neil Armstrong, Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin, and Mike Collins left the Earth atop the massive Saturn V rocket and hurtled more than 200,00 Kilometers into the pages of history. After achieving lunar orbit, Armstrong and Aldrin flew the LEM Eagle to the surface of the Moon and became the first men to set foot on another world, marking the success of a decade of hard work.

Nothing compares to the scope of the achievement of all the men and women who labored for almost a decade to make this moment and the subsequent moon landings possible.

It was very fun to follow the mission on WeChooseTheMoon.org.
