45 Years ago these days the first men walked the Moon!!!

45 Years ago these days Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong walked as the first humans on the lunar surface.

Apollo 11 was the spaceflight that landed the first humans on the Moon, Americans Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, on July 20, 1969, at 20:18 UTC. Armstrong became the first to step onto the lunar surface six hours later on July 21 at 02:56 UTC. Armstrong spent about two and a half hours outside the spacecraft, Aldrin slightly less, and together they collected 47.5 pounds (21.5 kg) of lunar material for return to Earth. A third member of the mission, Michael Collins, piloted thecommand spacecraft alone in lunar orbit until Armstrong and Aldrin returned to it just under a day later for the trip back to Earth.

What an astonishing feat! I wasn't even born then, but I've seen the footage like a gazillion times, and it's still incredibly exciting to watch. 
They did what people for millennias had been telling stories about: They landed on the Moon! What these 3 guys did, was both to show us what we are capable of and how fragile we are. Just by turning the camera around from the surface on another world, and thereby showing us what an amazing and unbelieveable place we inhabit. I am still in awe... 

Thanks to Buzz, Neil and Michael! #Apollo45
