"July 20, 1969. Seventy miles up, the two spaceships, Eagle and Columbia, separate . . .then the Eagle begins to descend-to where no human has ever been. To the moon." Astronaut Neil Armstrong lands the craft carefully. He and Buzz Aldrin put on special gear, such as air tanks and helmets with sun visors. Then they step onto the moon's finely dusted surface. In vivid detail, here is the story of the historic moon landing. Author's note. Full-color oil paintings.
