July 20, 1969: Happy Moonlanding Day!
40 years ago, tonight (kinda), two good ol' boys took a mylar foil and aluminum tube craft to the surface of the moon; 245,000 miles away.
They almost crashed.
Almost gave up..
But with 5 seconds of propellant remaining decided to stick the landing.
And with the world watching, succeeded. Not for America, but for all Humanity.
"That's one small step for a man, one..giant leap for mankind."
Happy July 20th Everyone.
