Honeysuckle Creek reveals the pivotal role that the tracking
station at Honeysuckle Creek, near Canberra, played in the first
moon landing. Andrew Tink gives a gripping account of the role of
its director Tom Reid and his colleagues in transmitting some of
the most-watched images in human history as Neil Armstrong took his
first step. Part biography and part personal history, this book
makes a significant contribution to Australia's role in space
exploration and reveals a story little known until now. As
Christopher Columbus Kraft Jr, the director of flight operations
for Apollo 11, acknowledged: 'The name Honeysuckle Creek and the
excellence which is implied by that name will always be remembered
and recorded in the annals of manned space flight'.
