Now, 50 years later, a new book celebrates the achievement of the Apollo missions, detailing an incredible period of science and engineering history. Eight Years to the Moon: The History of the Apollo Missions tells the unique personal stories of over 60 engineers and scientists who worked behind the scenes to make the Apollo program possible. The eight years from President Kennedy's challenge in 1961 to the first Moon landing in 1969 are filled with stories of the dedication and perseverance it took to overcome the challenges, hurdles and conflicts of doing things that had never been done before. The stories are fun, heart-warming and heart-breaking and they provide a glimpse into the lives of some of the hundreds of thousands of people who made it possible to land humans on the Moon."--Amazon. 610 20 $a Project Apollo (U.S.) 610 20 $a Apollo 11 (Spacecraft) 651 0 $a Moon $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Space flight to the moon. 700 1 $a Schweickart, Rusty, $e writer of the foreward. 941 $a 6 952 $l XSPE157 $d 20200213011012.0 952 $l XPPC367 $d 20191011012220.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20190910011831.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20190820011010.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20190814015319.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20190723011252.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=47522800AD0F11E98C46566A97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
