    2. On July 20, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to land on the Moon, while Mike Collins orbited above in the command module. Many of us recall living through that amazing decade. Even today, I am astonished by NASA's achievement. As we are all accustomed to desktop computers, laptops & the Internet it is a miracle that these people achieved President John F. Kennedy's goal of landing on the moon in a mere ten years. And they did it with slide rules!!!! Background: During that time, everything stopped as people watched the moon landing. We all remember Walter Cronkite's glee as he led the broadcast that night. The Apollo 11 mission was the first manned mission to land on the Moon. It was the fifth human spaceflight of the Apollo launches and the third human voyage to the Moon or Moon orbit. Launched on July 16, 1969, it carried Mission Commander Neil Alden Armstrong, Command Module Pilot Michael Collins, and Lunar Module Pilot Edwin Eugene 'Buzz' Aldrin, Jr. I remember going for a walk with my Dad and the family dog the next day. It was an overcast, humid, gray day in New York. Nothing would ever be the same again. In honor of the moment, a vine of "moon flowers" was glowing brilliantly along the walk. How appropriate, I remember thinking. Moon flowers.................. This is a masterpiece that beautifully recaptures those days, in both well photographed & well written book as well as a stunning DVD. This is a must for anyone wishing to see an excellent chronicle of the moon mission.
