Since the 1960s, the United States has been lagging behind the Soviet Union in artificial earth satellites and manned space technology. Therefore, the United States formulated the "Apollo Plan" for human landing on the moon, and stepped up research and experiments on human landing on the moon.
In July 1969, 16, after all the preparations were fully mature, Apollo humans began to land on the moon. At the launch site of Kennedy Space Flight Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida, on the east coast of the United States, a giant rocket with a length of 1 10 meter was ignited. After flying 6 1 hour in the earth-moon transition orbit, the spacecraft reached the equilibrium point where the gravity of the earth and the moon were equal, began to move under the gravity of the moon, and entered the orbit around the moon 75 hours later. ?
At 3: 051minute on July 26th, 265438, the lunar module made a soft landing on the moon under the control of two astronauts, N·A· Armstrong and E·E· Aldrin. Another astronaut, Collins, stayed in the command module and continued to fly around the moon. Armstrong climbed out of the airlock of the lunar module and slowly walked down the 9-step escalator from the 5-meter-high entrance.
At 4: 07, his left foot set foot on the surface of the moon for the first time, and human footprints were printed on the silent moon dust for the first time. Armstrong and Aldrin stayed on the moon for 2 1 hour 18 minutes. In addition to installing a large number of test devices, they also collected 23 kilograms of lunar rocks and soil samples, and then drove the lunar module to upgrade and return to orbit around the moon, meet and dock with the mother ship and fly to the earth. ?
