Lesson 2
IT WAS JULY 20, 1969.
Millions of people watched
on television as astronaut
Neil Armstrong, the
commander of Apollo 11,
walked on the moon for
the first time in history.
The historic trip wasn't
easy. After a lot of problems,
Armstrong landed his lunar
module, called the ‘Eagle', on
the moon. There were two
more astronauts with him,
Buzz Aldrin and Michael
Collins. They put on their
spacesuits and Armstrong
opened the door. He climbed
out on a ladder. It had nine
steps.
Armstrong jumped the last step and his feet
touched the moon. Some minutes later, Aldrin
also climbed out of the ‘Eagle'.
The two astronauts stayed about 3 hours on
the moon. They collected rocks and planted
the US flag.
On July 24th the crew landed in the Pacific
Ocean. Scientists studied
the rocks from the moon
and discovered that there
was no life there. Armstrong
called their mission the
‘beginning of a new age'.
Did they do it again? No,
they didn't. They stopped
travelling into space. But
that journey changed their
life.
