A blog about aviation, aviation news, and space.

Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the moon. July, 1969 A.D. We came in peace for all mankind.

These words were on the Apollo 11 LEM Plaque as read by Neil Armstrong on July 20, 1969 from the Sea of Tranquility on the Lunar surface.

In memory of all the brave men of the early space program who made the journey first to Earth orbit, and then to the Moon…and those who weren’t able to.
