Bold photographs, fascinating graphics, and engaging stories commemorate the 20th century's most important space endeavor: NASA's Apollo program to reach the moon. From the lunar rover and an emergency oxygen mask to space food and moon rocks, it's a carefully curated array of objects--complete with intriguing back stories and profiles of key participants. This book showcases the historic space exploration program that landed humans on the moon, advanced the world's capabilities for space travel, and revolutionized our sense of humanity's place in the universe. Each historic accomplishment is symbolized by a different object, from a Russian stamp honoring Yuri Gagarin and plastic astronaut action figures to the Apollo 11 command module, piloted by Michael Collins as Armstrong and Aldrin made the first moonwalk, together with the monumental art inspired by these moon missions. Throughout, Apollo to the Moon also tells the story of people who made the journey possible: the heroic astronauts as well as their supporters, including President John F. Kennedy, newsman Walter Cronkite, and NASA scientists such as Margaret Hamilton."--Publisher's website. 610 20 $a Project Apollo (U.S.) $x History. 650 0 $a Space flight to the moon $x History. 700 1 $a Collins, Michael, $d 1930- $e writer of foreword. 710 2 $a National Air and Space Museum. 941 $a 9 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409032236.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722061058.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20201205010056.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20190802010756.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20190726011831.0 952 $l VOPB384 $d 20190626010506.0 952 $l SVPC124 $d 20190528160651.0 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20190226013537.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20181205012606.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D4E5D86EE19111E89124B82197128E48 994 $a C0 $b JIMInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
