35. Men on the Moon: The 1969 Liftoff

Welcome to Storytime from Lucky Podcast. This episode reads "Men on the Moon" by Alison Hawes and tells the true story of the 1969 Apollo mission when astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins launched to the moon, landed under difficult conditions, walked on the lunar surface, collected samples and performed experiments. After a tense landing with only seconds of fuel left, Armstrong and Aldrin explored the moon, planted the flag, made repairs to a broken switch, rejoined Collins in orbit and returned safely to Earth with a splashdown at the end.
