Long ago a lot of people thought the moon was a god. Other people thought it was just a light
in the sky. And others thought it was a big ball on cheese. Then telescopes were made. And men saw
that the moon was really another world. They wondered what it was like. They dreamed of going
there.
On July 20, 1969, that dream came true. Two American men landed on the moon. Their names were
Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin. The first thing the men found was that the moon was covered with
dust. The dust was so thick that the men left footprints where they walked. Those were the first marks
a living thing that ever made on the moon. And they could stay there for years and years. There is no
wind or rain to wipe them off.
The two men walked on the moon for hours. They picked up rocks to bring back to the Earth for
study. They dug up dirt to bring back. They set up machines to find out things people wanted to know.
Then they climbed back in to their moon landing craft.
Next day the landing craft roared as the two men took off from the moon. They joined Micheal
Collins in the spaceship that waited for them above the moon. Then they were off on their long trip
back to Earth. Behind them, they left plains and tall mountains of the moon, the machines they had set
up and footprints that may last forever.
