Fifty years after the Apollo 11 mission made history, this book
tells the epic story of the astronauts, flight controllers and
engineers who made it happen. On 20 July 1969, Neil Armstrong and
Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the Moon, a moment
ingrained in modern memory. Perhaps the world's greatest
technological achievement - and a triumph of spirit and ingenuity -
the Apollo 11 mission and the Apollo program was a mammoth
undertaking involving more than 410,000 men and women dedicated to
winning the Space Race with the Soviets. Seen through the eyes of
those who lived it, Shoot for The Moon reveals the dangers, the
challenges and the sheer determination that defined not only Apollo
11, but also the Mercury and Gemini missions that made it possible.
Both sweeping and intimate, and based on exhaustive research and
dozens of fresh interviews, this is the definitive - and thrilling
- account of one of humankind's most extraordinary feats of
exploration.
