Amazon 7 #1 July 21, 2010 On a warm July night in 1969 I was sitting in front of a tv with millions of other humans watching 2 Americans landing on the moon. Moon Landing I am old enough now that I do not think I will see another human being walk on another planet, let alone the moon and that saddens me.

dks13827 3 #6 July 21, 2010 Apollo entrenched my ambitions to be a jumper and a pilot, it has been wonderful............ sadly, Nasa's future looks not too good, to say the least. Something unimagineable 41 years ago tonight. Cheers to the many people who devoted much of their lives to the Apollo program, and other programs.

BillyVance 35 #25 July 21, 2010 I was just over a month shy of hitting my 2nd birthday. My dad has slides somewhere in the house from pictures he took of the black and white TV showing the moon landing and the two astronauts hopping across the moonscape.
