A Man on the Moon Ref: B0140241469
THE VOYAGES OF THE APOLLO ASTRONAUTS
Author: Andrew Chaikin
Published: 1995
Pages: 688> Paperback
ISBN: 0140241469
The race to the moon began in 1961. It was won spectacularly on 20 July 1969, when astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin took their 'giant step' across a ghostly lunar landscape, 250,000 miles from a watching Earth. For the moon landings actually did take place: it wasn't all a science fiction dream. And this is how it happened ...
Beginning with President Kennedy's bold deadline, A Man on the Moon is the definitive account of the Apollo programme's successes and its heroic failure: from the fire in Apollo 1 during a simulated lauch, to the discoveries made by the first scientist in space aboard Apollo 17. A Man on the Moon is the story of our century's greatest human achievement - in the words of those who were there.
