The Apollo 11 mission was the first manned mission to land on the Moon.
Upon setting foot on the Moon, mission commander Neil Armstrong spoke the famous words:
“That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”
A crescent Earth photographed during the return trip of Apollo 11 in July 1969:
"You see, Wendy, when the first baby laughed for the first time, its laugh broke into a thousand pieces, and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies." James M. Barrie Peter Pan.

Did you know there are some groups (can't remember the names of them but I just call them "dummies") who are trying to prove that we have never actually landed on the moon. They say it's all big conspiracy and the first landing and first walk were elaborate stages on some Hollywood lot.
I for one would love to have so much time that I can sit around and do nothing but think of stupid conspiracy theories.
