Summary |
Simply told, here is the flight of Apollo 11 for a new generation of readers and explorers, featuring the steady astronauts clicking themselves into gloves and helmets, and strapping themselves into sideways seats. Here are their great machines in all their detail and monumentality, the ROAR of rockets, and the silence of the Moon. Here is a story of adventure and discovery -- a story of leaving and returning during the summer of 1969, and a story of home, seen whole, from far away. |
