Beginning October 3rd, I will be beginning a series that probably won't be daily, but one that will run for over four years, through December 19, 2012. This series will honor the greatest human achievement in history.
Apollo+40: America Goes to the Moon
Forty years ago on October 3, 1968, the Flight Readiness Review for Apollo 7 - the first manned flight after the Apollo 1 tragedy - was held, clearing the mission for launch about a week later. This was the beginning of the final drive that put the only twelve human beings - all of them proud Americans - on the surface of the Moon between July 1969 and December 1972.
To whet all your appetites, here is the trailer for the documentary In the Shadow of the Moon. Enjoy!
