Damn this video makes soooo damn proud to be an American.

[Ljotulfson]

@00andrescab00 So it should - this was America at its greatest. We should remember that this endeavour to reach the moon was kick started by the Russians, and this wonderful goal was achieved by the collective knowledge of humanity as a whole. Werner von Braun's genius was harnessed for a positive undertaking - the outcome of the 1960s 'Space Race' is the International Space Station where petty nationalistic rivalries are no longer relevant. Humanity is at the cusp of a wonderful cosmic future.

Great vid.

You know I'm not sure if we were really the first peeps to get to the moon. I think it was really those oriental folks with their firework powered electric chair thing. If you really think about any old joe with a couple of firecrackers strapped to the back of a surfboard could easily surf to the moon or visa versa.

De qq modo o comentário era sobre a descrença que parece tomar conta da internet em não acreditar que um dia o homem chegou à Lua. Para evitar qq confusão, considero que é fato o homem ter chegado à Lua. E ter conquistado o espaço e se aventurar ainda mais longe no futuro. Sou um aficionado pelo assunto, e quando criança também sonhei em ser astronauta.

What a beautiful film! Thank you so much!

We did in fact land on the Moon.

The flight was tracked by many.

The technology was there.

If the technology is not there today, then our fathers and grandfathers were and are MUCH smarter than us.

JFK's dream came true.

I am,

IT NEVER HAPPENED.

[jkitche45]

too many people would have had to keep their mouths shut. and we all know how that works.

[GeneralChurch]

Click...Boom. We defiantly got there don't worry, if you go to a high enough powered telescope then you can see the original landing sites and everything around them.

[GeneralChurch]

Grow up, we were there. if you claim we didn't then prove it show me conclusive indisputable evidence... I'm a producer and know my way around FX. make a comment and i will prove you wrong.

[mojokind13]

NO ONE EVER STEPPED FOOT ON THE MOON.

[fernandhugofernandes]

Of course... And you believe in God, don't you?... And you never seen Him, why do you still believe, idiot?

[Upsilon1982]

Há coisas que simplesmente não se precisam de ver para acreditar.

[GeneralChurch]

[MaximumAfterburner]

The video is far too long, it's extremely difficult for the avg person to maintain an interest past 2 minutes.

[Dronnok]

"...and new rights to be won, and they must be won and used for the progress of all people." Happy 40th birthday to the Apollo missions and to the astronauts that first walked on the moon, I wish I could have been there.
