Description
On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong took "one small step" to become the first man ever to walk on the moon. Fellow astronaut Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin dropped onto the dusty surface a few minutes later. Only two men made history, but live TV let millions
of people watch it unfold — including Buzz Aldrin's eleven-year-old daughter Jan. This fascinating book tells the inside story of those intrepid space adventurers, both from their own perspective and from Jan Aldrin's. First On the Moon lets readers
experience everything about the famous "giant leap for mankind" — the excitement of the preparation, the perilous journey, the exploration of the moon, and the triumphant return.
