When impossible ended on July 20, 1969, half a billion people around the world watched Neil
Armstrong’s “One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” Accompanying the pictorial account of American manned spaceflight is an informative text. The narrative surrounding that epic journey includes NASA transcripts from communications between Apollo 11 and Mission Control; the beginnings of manned spaceflight missions before; what comes next.

Highly recommended. ( )
