About this audiobook
The Apollo Program is the most famous and celebrated in American history, but the first successful landing of men on the Moon during Apollo 11 had complicated roots dating back over a decade, and it also involved one of NASA’s most infamous tragedies.
From 1959-1963, the United States worked toward putting satellites and humans into orbit via the Mercury program, but Eisenhower’s administration was already designing plans for the Apollo program by 1960, a year before the first Russian orbited the Earth and two years before John Glenn became the first American to orbit the Earth.
This book takes you on a journey through Armstrong's early life, his passion for aviation, and his historic role in the Apollo 11 mission. Discover the challenges, triumphs, and the momentous steps that led to the unforgettable phrase: Perfect for space enthusiasts, history buffs, and anyone fascinated by human achievement.
The book focuses on a moon-based infrastructure to sustain life and to be able to live on the moon. The book also showed older traditional techniques that sailors used in the past on earth and the astronauts used during the Apollo missions. But for a sustainable moon-based society, a moon-based navigational infrastructure is a must to have and to navigate on the moon.
