Apollo 11: One Giant Leap...


In 1969, the United States embarked on one of its greatest journeys... With Apollo 11, we landed on the Moon. On August 25, 2012, Neil Armstrong, the first man to set foot on the moon, passed away.

Check out NASA's Website for photos, features, and information about this remarkable man and this remarkable mission.

Relive the Apollo 11 mission at We Choose The Moon, an excellent interactive site mixing Flash animation recreation of the mission with stock photos, audio, and video. Remarkable. Thanks to Mike Nichols for sharing this link with me. This site is a wonderful educational tool, bringing these events to life. You'll need Adobe Flash Player to view. You can get it at Adobe's website.
