BANTU JAWAB LH KAK PLISS..

in 1969, the NASA launched apollo 11 to the moon. The crews of the mission were Neil Armstrong, Edwin "Buzz" aldrin and michael allen collins. The mission objective for apollo 11 was Simply to take humansto the moon and retrun safely. Both NASA and the crew recognized the mission's significance for all humans, and reflected this in several ways. Apollo 11's mission patch is the only mission patch in NASA history to have no individual names on it. A plaque mounted on one leg of the lunar module, the part of the apollo spacecraft that landed on the moon, bears a map of the earth, the signatures of president Richard Nixon and all three astronauts, and the inscription, "here men from the planet earth first set foot upon the moon july 1969 A.D. We came in peace for all mankind."

Apollo11 launched from cape canaveral, florida, on july 16, 1969, and arrived in orbit around the moon on july 20. On the 14th orbit of the moon, following eight hours of preparation for the landing, the lunar module eagle undocked from the command module Columbia and descended toward the mare tranquillitatis (sea of tranquilily). Armstrong began actively piloting the eagle when the craft was about 1500 m (about 5000 ft) above the moon and 6 km (4 mil) east of the landing target, maneuvering to avoid boulders in the landing zone. The eagle touched down on the moon's surface very gently about three hours after separating from the Columbia. Armstrong and aldrin prepared the eagle for immediate liftoff in case of emergency, ate a meal, skipped a planned rest period, and began getting ready to go out onto the lunar surface.

At 10:56 PM eastern daylight time neil armstrong became the first human being to set foot on the moon, pronouncing one of the most famous quotes of the 20th century: "that's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind". Aldrin emerged less than 15 minutes later.

Armstrong and aldrin worked on the lunar surface operation's within a radius of about 50 m (160 ft) of the lunar module for about 2 hours and 30 minutes. Their work included the collection of 22 kg(48 lbs) of rock samples and core tube samples and setting up a solar wind experiment, a seismometer to detect moonquakes, and a laser reflector. The laser reflector refleced pulses of laser light fired from the earth. This allowed scientists to make very accurate measurement of the distance between the earth and moon. Eagle lifted off to rejoin columbia after just 21 hours and 30 minutes on lunar surface.

The apollo 11 crew retruned to earth on july 24, spalshing down in the pacific ocean about 1.300 km (about 810 mil) southeast of hawaii. The crew spent a lengthy period in biological quaratine to ensure they had not brought any contaminants back to earth, and then spent many months in technical debriefings at NASA and public appearances around the world.
