Apollo 11: Onto a New World |
Explanation |
A human first set foot on another world on July 20, 1969 [ http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apollo11.html ]. This world was Earth's own Moon [ http://lunar.arc.nasa.gov/ ]. Pictured above is Neil Armstrong [ http://www.ksc.nasa.gov/mirrors/images/images/pao/AS11/10075179.htm ] preparing to take the historic first step [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap950921.html ]. On the way down the Lunar Module [ http://www.nasm.edu/APOLLO/LMordered.html ] ladder, Armstrong [ http://www.3d-interact.com/SpaceMuseum/armstrong.html ] released equipment which included the television camera that recorded this fuzzy image [ http://www.ksc.nasa.gov/mirrors/images/images/pao/AS11/10075288.htm ]. Pictures and voice transmissions [ http://www.ksc.nasa.gov/history/apollo/apollo-11/ sounds/A01106AA.WAV ] were broadcast live [ http://www.ksc.nasa.gov/history/apollo/apollo-11/ sounds/A01108AA.WAV ] to an estimated world wide audience of one billion people. The Apollo Moon landings [ http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/ ] have since been described as the greatest technological achievement [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap960412.html ] the world has known. |

From the Kennedy Space Flight Center (KSC) control room, Apollo Program Director Lieutenant General Samuel C. Phillips monitors pre-launch activities for Apollo 11. The Apollo 11 mission, the first lunar landing mission, launched from the KSC in Florida via the Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) developed Saturn V launch vehicle on July 16, 1969 and safely returned to Earth on July 24, 1969. Aboard the space craft were astronauts Neil A. Armstrong, commander, Michael Collins, Command Module (CM) pilot, and Edwin E. (Buzz) Aldrin Jr., Lunar Module (LM) pilot. The CM, ?Columbia?, piloted by Collins, remained in a parking orbit around the Moon while the LM, ?Eagle??, carrying astronauts Armstrong and Aldrin, landed on the Moon. On July 20, 1969, Armstrong was the first human to ever stand on the lunar surface, followed by Aldrin. During 2½ hours of surface exploration, the crew collected 47 pounds of lunar surface material for analysis back on Earth. With the success of Apollo 11, the national objective to land men on the Moon and return them safely to Earth had been accomplished. |
