Fifty-seven years ago tonight. 400,000 people worked for a decade to put two sets of bootprints somewhere other than here... and the world was never the same. 'You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it. From out there on the Moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, “Look at that, you son of a bitch.”' -- Edgar Mitchell, LM pilot, Apollo 14, quoted in People (magazine), 8 Apr 1974. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrzeFNEv150 #space #Apollo11 #moon #MoonLanding #OverviewEffect

57 years ago today, July 20, 1969: Apollo 11 lunar landing, humanity's first serious attempt to land people on the #Moon succeeded. First words spoken from the lunar surface are arguably "contact light", but usually celebrated with the line that followed, "Houston, Tranquility Base here, the Eagle has landed." https://www.nasa.gov/mission/apollo-11/ #Apollo11 #NASA #space #history
