The Miracle that was APOLLO

Forty years ago there were many people who were very excited about a new endeavor for mankind. In the late 1950s and early 1960s a group of visionaries convinced an American president that we must mount a great effort to take men to the moon. It was begun and humanity was never the same. In 1969 two men landed on the moon and humanity was changed forever. We had taken our first steps to the stars.
Humans are explorers and adventurers. We have the genes. They are inborn in us. We are a curious species and desire to know how things work, what is over that hill and what is it like to climb the tallest mountain?
