21. July 1969 - Man enters the surface of the moon for the first time

American Neil Armstrong became the first person to walk the moon. It entered its surface at 02.56 GMT in the Mare Tranquillitatis, less than 20 minutes after the first opening of the hatch on the Orel landing module. At 20.17 GMT the day before, Armstrong had announced that the lunar module had landed safely, saying, "Houston, this is Tranquility Base." The eagle landed. ”

The moment he stepped on the moon's surface with his left foot, he uttered the iconic words "It's a small step for man, a huge leap for humanity," who allegedly attacked him on his own without was preparing! He further described the surface as coal dust, in which the landing module left only small depressions. These historic moments were captured by television cameras attached to the Eagle module, which Armstrong himself turned on. He spent the first few minutes after taking photos and collecting soil samples in case the mission had to be abruptly interrupted. His colleague Edwin 'Buzz' Aldrin joined him at 03.15 GMT, and both then collected data and performed various exercises - including jumping through the lunar landscape - before planting the United States flag at 03.41 GMT.

In addition, they unveiled a plaque bearing President Nixon's signature and an inscription that reads: "This is where people from planet Earth first touched the moon. July L. P. 1969. We have come in peace on behalf of all mankind. ”Subsequent missions have brought with them more modern equipment. This gift set allows you to build a number of these missions up to the last one - Apollo 17 from December 1972.
