Description
Aldrin and Apollo 11 Lunar Module Eagle under Earth. Panoramic version.
Monday July 21, 1969. Buzz Aldrin works on the controls of the Eagle, the Lunar Module, on the surface of the moon during Apollo 11. Mission commander Neil Armstrong shot this photos that conform this panorama. Although this moment actually happened, this image is a composition. The Earth was much higher in the sky.
A few decades after Armstrong took that first step, mankind has grown accustomed to this astonishing fact.
The new generations do not fully comprehend and appreciate the unprecedented difficulties and risks it supposed, and the extraordinary determination and courage of the men who faced and overcame them.
It cannot be forgotten.
