Today is the anniversary of the landing on the moon. I can remember my Dad not believing this really happened he was convinced that they landed in the desert . And today there are still many people who believe this really never took place.
I have read several articles on this matter and found this one interesting http://www.thekeyboard.org.uk/Did%20we%20land%20on%20the%20Moon.htm anyway I was one of the ones that watched this unfold on the TV.. I guess at that time in history it was hard to believe that man could accomplish something like that. I know I would sit outside after that and look up at the moon and it just almost seemed impossible that this could be true. And now at 59 I have seen other things happen in this world that seem just as hard to believe that are true. I think that sometime the whole picture of thing seem to hard for us to understand at that time. And now looking back landing on the moon doesn't seem like that big of a deal. We have come so far with our space program since July 20 so many years ago . But it has its place and importance in history like everything else. And I am not saying it wasn't a very important step for the human race. It has lead us to so many other things and helped us learn so much more about the world we live in.
