- Lot Description
Collection of Astronaut Newspaper Articles and Apollo 11 Vinyl Record. A plethora of cut-out articles about the incredible event, many from Montclair, New Jersey. The record is "a commemorative record of the first words spoken by man on the moon" narrated by Hugh Downs.
Size: 15 x 12 x 1/4 in.
Apollo 11 (July 16th-24th, 1969) was the historic American spaceflight that successfully fulfilled President John F. Kennedy's national goal of landing humans on the Moon and returning them safely to Earth. Launched from Kennedy Space Center, the crew consisted of Commander Neil Armstrong, Command Module Pilot Michael Collins, and Lunar Module Pilot Buzz Aldrin. The words spoken by Armstrong upon stepping onto the lunar surface (“That’s one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind”) are remembered as one of the most famous quotes in all of human history, but later trips to the moon and outer space faced financial and political challenges due to a perception that the Space Race against the Russians had been “won” and was over, rather than acknowledging the moment as truly the beginning of mankind’s “greatest adventure of all time.”
