a. This book aims to convey the impact of the Apollo 11 Moon landing outside of the United States, to demonstrate how it truly was an endeavor, as the plaque we left on the Moon says, for all mankind.
"The messages of hope and inspiration in this book are very much of a time, but they are also timeless. Maybe they speak to the ability humans have to overcome seemingly impossible challenges...but apparently only when we feel like it. As we stand at the new crossroads of space exploration and look forward, perhaps we should glance backward, too, and remember from whence we came. Because Apollo set the bar high. Very, very high." - Geoff Notkin, President of the National Space Society and former host of Meteorite Men on The Discovery Channel
