I was seven years old on the day of the Apollo 11 landing. In Toronto, where I grew up, there was a charged atmosphere of excited anticipation so powerful, I can still “smell” it after the passage of 50 years. The next day (Sunday) the moon walk was scheduled. The weather was beautiful, all the kids in the neighbourhood were outside playing and everything seemed perfect. Dad had bought a new television set a few months before, a 12” portable, b+w, RCA TV. I went to bed at 8 pm, as usual but my parents got me up to watch Neil Armstrong take the first step on the moon. I was entirely cognizant of the extra-ordinary historic significance of that moment- no-less significant than any other momentous event of human history....and I was born...just-in time to be an eye-witness of it and relate my recollections to a globally accessible medium that is a by-product of the technology developed to facilitate the Apollo Space Program, a half-century later! Thanks for getting me up that night Mom & Dad.

[@Ibiracatu]

Absolutely Everybody watched it. A TRUE World Event! I was 9, living in Edmonton.

[@gondolacrescent5]

Sledcat I may be mixed up with several spectacular (in S. Ontario) lunar eclipses that occurred within the decade after the Apollo space program...but I seem to recall the moon during the Apollo 11 flight was full or very near full. Again, the weather that glorious Sunday of the August 21 moonwalk was as perfect as perfection can get, not a cloud in the sky. It is a very happy memory of a very healthy and vigorous time.

[@mariest.victor2110]

I was 32 back then, and I also was one of many mothers who woke up their sleeping children to watch this historic event on television!

[@jo-annneuhaus388]

Though an urban planner, I was glued to NASA's space program's advances. I remember vividly NASA's Apollo 11 landing on the moon and the Apollo launches that followed - including the scary problem that occurred on Apollo 13 and its safe return. I was one of the very fortunate ones who were at Cape Kennedy for Apollo 12 and in the grandstand at Cape Kennedy for Apollo 14 liftoffs. Those and the tour before Apollo 14's take off were highlights in my life that I will never forget. I was so struck by the program that for my urban planning Master's thesis, I looked into studies NASA and the Navy had undertaken to see if there were findings applicable to urban problems. That was a heady time for many reasons, one of which was the country's space program. Thank you for this documentary (along with music) from a far better era than our current times in many ways.

Enjoyed the music compelations throughout the NASA space missions. It's fascinating how the missions for Mars brings the concept of which the unity of mankind can be achieved in Mars without prejudices but its hard to accomplish the same concept here on Earth without the fears, divisions and racial tensions that we as nations live under. Thoroughly enjoyed this documentary. The minds of those that made missions possible shows the determination and dedication of all the teams. It proves how the anticipation of what seemed an impossible and difficult task to becoming so achievable. For those down at the ground control station and for those brave spirited people that travelled up into space, took years to perfect. They certainly did go far and beyond and with today's advancement in technologies. The future generations will go on to accomplish more towards another type and level of existence. THE ONLY QUESTION THAT PRESENTS ME TO ASK IS WHAT/WHO GAVE THE CONCEPT OF A SPACE RACE IN THE BEGINNING. APART FROM GOVERNMENT LEADERS ANNOUNCEMENTS?

They edited out all of the stars, blurred out every crater, cavern- and edited any showing of life, microbes, and built structures located on twilight dark side which are apparent now today- and what happend to that 2 minutes of silence where told to change from public radio to secure radio, when seeing (Santa), helium 3, - and didn’t show the launching of a lander into moon, and it rang like a steel bell for over 2 days... nor the 18% oxygen atmosphere, blinking lights that have been shown later on surface, nor showing anything they saw on the side of moon we can’t see...

[@chriscross5617]

I was a 9 year-old English kid in July '69. When 11 landed I went outside with my dad and we looked up at a perfect moon. We ran back in to the TV - then out again and looked at the moon. This went on and on. It was inconceivable to us that, as we looked up, there were two guys actually walking around up there. It was the only time I ever saw my dad cry. It is almost impossible to explain the feeling to anyone born too late to have seen those mind-blowing events. Years later playing with my six-year-old nephew I pointed to the moon I asked him if he understood that men had walked on the surface. He looked up at me and just said "Yeah. I know." and that was it. I didn't try to explain further.

Who in the world edited this it is amazing. Better than anything i have seen in a very long time. This should be on all streaming platforms! To be united as the terestrials rather than whites and blacks would be a good day indeed. Conquering as members of our spiecies. I hope we make it there.

farewell, Neil Alden Armstrong. You will forever be remembered as one of the bravest men to ever walk on this world, and others.
