Moon Memories: 40th Anniversary of the Apollo 11

The goal of MOON MEMORIES is to collect family memories regarding the space voyage that resulted in the first humans landing on the moon and taking a moon walk. How did this historic event affect your families or friends?

The Ontario Science Centre invites your family to participate in collecting moon memories. Generations who have no memories of this event will see it come alive as they hear the rich stories of their families or friends.

SHARE YOUR MEMORIES!

•If you were born before July 20th, 1969 or if you were too young to remember it—you can participate by interviewing those who did witness Apollos arrival at the moon.
•If you experienced it yourself, you can be interviewed by those who didnt. Some of the interviews will be published in the blog http://memoriaslunares-moonmemories.blogspot.com
•Others will be part of newspaper articles.
•Videos will be broadcast through a YouTube playlist.

I was 10 years of age. It was on that Sunday evening so long ago when our entire family gathered in the living room to observe history being made. It was in 'glourious Black & White' and may seem very crude to someone raised in recent times. But it was all VERY hi tech at that time. Gulf oil even had distributed paper LEMs that kids could put together and have a replica. My brother still has his!! It was a great time to be an American and be proud of our nation!!!
