The topic that I chose was the space exploration with the Apollo moon landings. Well at the time there was great political turmoil in the world because of the cold war. Before the moon missions people had not ventured very far out into space, but president Kennedy gave a challenge to land on the moon by a certain time. They did not know exactly how they would accomplish this at the time but hundreds of scientists and engineers put in thousands of man hours in order to figure it out. They continued to refine their rocket designs until it was safe enough for people to ride in. They finally did it they landed on the moon and did what no one had done before. This was a milestone in history which contributed to many innovations that we have today.
