When I was 3 years old I remember standing in front of the old B&W TV, watching this event. It stuck ever since. Grownups where buzzing about it, telling the li'l one there were actual people walking on the actual Moon, and it went on until I was in elementary school. We played Astronaut on the schoolyard, I wanted to be an astronaut, wich seemed to be a viable career-option in those days... It still totally excites me. Many's the night I curl up in bed with one of my beautiful books from that era, and read about what was about to happen, or had just happened, or was still happening. Each picture tells a story of infinite wonder and total fascination with the world that I can almost touch when I'm riding my bike at night, or peering through my telescope. At moments like that I find myself wishing time had taken a diff'rent turn back then, that the last Apollo missions hadn't been blown off, that people had walked Mars in '76 -8 or the eighties, and there was a NOVA-nuclear generation-ship heading for some nearby star today... A Guy can dream, can't he ? Thank Cosmos he can...
