Apollo 11 Lunar Mission

Expedition

Jul. 16 - Jul. 24 1969 CE

On July 21, 1969, as millions of people watched remotely on the surface of Earth, two courageous men of the Apollo 11 mission became the first humans to set foot on a world other than their own: their planet's only moon, Luna. Their achievement, and the achievements of the other Apollo program astronauts, continue to inspire generations of humans to push ever forward into the frontier of space.
