MOON MEMORIES - THE EAGLE HAS LANDED

Video reply to Ontario Science Centre "Moon memories"
Remembering...one of the coolest historical events of my life time...
Influenced by Flash Gordon & Buck Rogers movies & the short lived 1950s tv show..the concept of space exploration - landing on distant planets was not out of the realm of possibilities...for a lot of us boomers - it was not a matter of 'if' but one of 'when'...
That said, I was glued to the tv...covered with goose bumps from head to toe...watching the most awesome event in my life time...
I never felt prouder of my country than at that moment & felt anything was possible for the future. I remember holding my infant son and saying, "Maybe someday you will be an astronaut"

Very well done ! When I was young, I got to sit in John Glenn's "space ship" looking back it must have been Friendship 7, it was so small that I remember feeling claustrophobic, (My Step Father was a flight instructor) While I remember the moon landing on TV, I have a more vivid memory of sitting outside just looking up at the moon afterward.

Thanks Nota...
Wow - that is so cool (not the claustrophobic part) ;P
I have opposite of claustrophobia - so I'd felt all snuggy.

What an exciting moment for the world. Walter Cronkite, an iconic figure.
The Space program of late has faltered. I wonder if we will ever reach that level of excitement and optimism for the future again. Maybe when man lands on Mars.

Sorta sad, isn't it?
Maybe you're right about Mars...

I have faint memories of it. During the telecast my grandfather took me outside to look at the moon, and I could have sworn I saw them from the front porch (the power of persuasion) .

Joseph, I bet you did see them! Age 4, grandfather taught me to color & draw. Because of him AND my grandmother encouraging & believing in me, that I'm who I am today, an artist. Like you, I was grandmother's favorite, she nurtured my imagination & creativity until she passed at age 93. I believe they gave me the gift to see the world in a very special way. ;)
