Leading up to the triumph of the great Moon Landing was a dark time for the United States.

From the early days of Sputnik to the lengthy Apollo missions, this book uncovers the moments leading to astronaut Neil Armstrong’s famous line: one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.

Uncover surprising events such as the first Spacewalk, the tragedy of the Challenger mission, and the great creation of the James Webb telescope. Reflect on the lasting effects of the momentous Moon Landing and learn how it influenced space exploration and knowledge today.
