Apollo
11
Apollo 11 was the
first manned mission to the moon. The
mission of this project was simply to land astronauts on the moon and
bring them back safely. The
mission was launched because President Kennedy said in his speech on May
25/ 1961 that the United States was falling behind in space exploration
after the Soviets sent the first people into space.
Kennedy challenged the US to send people to the moon within a
decade. Although Kennedy
was assassinated before he got to see the Apollo 11, this did not stop
the Americans from continuing the mission.
-Its one small step for man, one giant
leap for mankind...
