One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.
Almost half a century ago manned spacecraft “Apollo-11” has helped mankind to take the first step on the moon.
July 20, 1969, commander Neil Armstrong and pilot Edwin Aldrin landed the lunar module in the southwestern area of the Sea of Tranquility. The astronauts stayed on the moon’s surface 21 hours, 36 minutes and 21 seconds. All this time, command module pilot Michael Collins was orbiting the moon.
On July 21 at 02:56:15 UTC Neil Armstrong made “one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”.
