Today is the 57th anniversary of the first moon landing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On July 20, 1969, Apollo 11 made history as the first manned spacecraft to land on the Moon. The crew included Commander Neil Armstrong, Lunar Module Pilot Buzz Aldrin, and Command Module Pilot Michael Collins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The astronauts traveled approximately 240,000 miles (386,000 kilometres) from Earth to the Moon in just 76 hours. An estimated 600 million people worldwide watched the historic mission unfold on television.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At 4:17 p.m., the lunar module Eagle touched down on the Moon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, at 10:56 p.m., Neil Armstrong stepped onto the lunar surface and delivered one of the most famous lines in history: “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
