46th Anniversary of Apollo 7 Today marks the 46th anniversary of Apollo 7. On July 20, 1969 Neil Armstrong became the first man to walk on the moon. Fellow astronauts, Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin and Lt. Col. Michael Collins, accompanied Armstrong. In 1961, during the Cold War, President John F. Kennedy addressed Congress to share his vision of space exploration for the United States. At that point the Soviet Union had outperformed U.S. in this category. One Small Step for Man Kind 1 billion…

The Volcanic eruption of Mount Sourabaya was captured exclusively by NASA satellites. Volcanic ash and lava may not be the only thing the satellites captured. Aliens may have been watching the eruption even though humans couldn’t get a glimpse of the eruption live. According to NASA Earth Observatory, no humans live near the volcano’s ocean isle. If a UFO were spotted doing a flyby of the Mount Sourabaya eruption, it wouldn’t be the first time. There have been a number of UFO sightings at other…

In the 1960s, the United States’ NASA carried out the Apollo program, the third of its manned human spaceflight programs. The goal of the program was to achieve manned exploration of the Moon and retake the lead in the Space Race against the Soviets, who had beaten the US to the first satellite and human in space, and convince the American public of the superiority of the US’ technological capability. After three unmanned flights, mission AS-204 (named Apollo 1 by the crew, and officially…

The Apollo Missions are a very important part of the space explorations project that the United States of America underwent. The missions consisted of tests and planning that ultimately landed men upon the moon. This was a great feat for mankind and allowed us to further investigate space technology and transform it into what we have today so that we might be able to further discover the world around us (Nasa). These missions allowed for us to understand the moon and it’s relationship to the…

The Times also uses the words of the astronauts themselves to make the reader feel as if they were listening in on the radio transmissions: Buzz Aldrin’s first words from the moon, “Tranquility base. The Eagle has landed” as well as Neil Armstrong’s now famous “that’s one small step for man but one giant leap for…

July 20, 1969, millions of people were waiting for the first man to walk on the moon. Finally, at 10:56 P.M. (eastern daylight time) Neil Armstrong descended the ladder, walked on the moon, and said, “That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.” This mission to moon would not have existed if it wasn’t for John F Kennedy’s contribution to the space program, one of his many achievements while president. John F Kennedy was known for improving domestic policy, expanding the space…

Did the US fake the moon landing? Or did they truly step foot on the moon and beat the Soviet Union in the Space Race? On many occasions we are reminded that the US were the first people to step foot on the moon. Although this is such a great accomplishment, considering the US defeated the Soviet Union in the Space Race, there are still many conspiracies that say the moon landing was fake. The Space Race was a competition between the Soviet Union and the United States for the greatest…
