In July of 1969, humans set foot on the first - and to date, only - celestial body away from their home planet. This is the story of Apollo 11, the mission that took Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins to the moon and take that historic "one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." Watch the launch of the massive Saturn V rockets, listen to exchanges between the astronauts and mission control, see footage from the historic space mission that landed on the moon, and find out more about how the astronauts got to the moon (and back!) and what they did there!

If you are studying the moon landing, I highly recommend visiting http://wechoosethemoon.org - it's an immersive interactive website with video, audio, and photos, arranged to feel like you're participating in the moon mission!

This movie is different than my other videos because it is made of historical and archival footage from NASA. Thank you NASA for allowing your materials to be used!!!
