On July 16, 1969, the US launch vehicle Saturn V from the Kennedy Space Center to Mission Apollo 11 lifted off. After three days, the rocket had reached its destination and circled the moon a few times. While Michael Collins remained in the mothership, commander Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin went into the lander Eagle. Neil Armstrong took control by hand and safely brought the Lunar Module to the floor in the "Sea of ​​Silence" on the evening of July 20th. Early in the morning of July 21st, Armstrong descended the lander and entered the moon, accompanied by the words, "A small step for a man, but a big step for humanity." He set up a camera and photographed Aldrin, who also climbed down a quarter of an hour after him. They collected more than 20 kilograms of rock and soil samples whose chemical composition was later thoroughly investigated. After 22 hours, the lander took off again. The Apollo spaceship with the three heroes finally started the flight home and watered three days later in the Pacific.
