The Apollo program was the third human spaceflight program did by the National Flying and Space Organization (NASA), the Unified States' regular citizen space office. Apollo prevailing with regards to getting the principal people on Earth's Moon in 1969 through 1972. This announcement was not accepted by a few people despite everything it remains a secret till this day. Apollo started decisively after President John F. Kennedy proposed the national objective of getting a man on the Moon and returning him securely to the Earth before the finish of the 1960s. A few people say that Kennedy's objective was expert when

As some of the people saw the picture of Neil Armstrong's footprint on the moon that he supposedly left during Apollo 11 they thought the moon landing was real, but when Neil Armstrong's space suit, the first man who walked on the moon, was placed in the museum for people to look at it they saw something different. In August 2016 people noticed that the bottom of the space suit's foot did not match the footprint that was left on the moon and this made people curious whether the moon Neil Armstrong, but by his partner who went with him to the moon, Buzz Aldrin. Buzz Aldrin took the picture of his own footprint to allow scientists to study the tensile strength of the moon's surface. This can be proved by two pictures, the picture of the footprint and the picture that was taken by Neil Armstrong. Neil Armstrong took a picture of Buzz Aldrin as he was descending from ladder to the moon's surface, in the picture we can see Buzz Aldrin's foot and it seems to match with the footprint left on the moon. Even though if the people still think that it was not Buzz Aldrin who left his footprint there is a proof that makes people think if it's Neil Armstrong or Buzz Aldrin. Before both of them stepped on the moon they decided to add extra pieces of gear prior stepping on the moon, they wore overshoes that matches the footprint left on the moon's surface. The overshoe went over the regular boot area on the space suit,
"One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind," said by Neil Armstrong as he took his first steps on the moon during the NASA Apollo 11 expedition to the moon. No man has ever been to the moon before and NASA, The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, was the first to get someone to land on the moon. NASA has had many great accomplishments in exploring the "new frontier" that have affected the United States ever since it was first created in July 1958. The idea for NASA first started when the Soviet Union launched the first satellite on October 4, 1957. United States started up its own space travel program and started to work on its own projects that would be better in than the Soviet Union's. This all started the great space race. It was a big race between the Soviet Union and the United States to see who could learn and discover the most. The United States and Soviet Union started building and sending satellites and space ships. Then they tried to see who could make a suit and ship that would be able to allow a living thing to go up in space. They tested out all of the equipment with monkeys and dogs, seeing what would work. Many animals did die in the process but by the results of their testing they were able to build suits and ships that allow human beings to go up in space. Even though they were able to create these machines, that doesn't mean that they didn't have their difficulties and dangers. Two space shuttles were crashed or blown up. There were many key factors that they had learned to fix that resulted in the crashing of those ships. They have made many discoveries and accomplishments like having the first astronauts walk on the moon.

A brief history to puts things in perspective, Apollo program was established in July 1960 by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). As it is normal the case, there were failures with the program in the beginning, below is the list of the missions that preceded Apollo 13:
On July 20, 1969 Neil Armstrong planted the first human footprints in the lunar soil. The United States had accomplished their goal in sending men to the moon. They managed to not only send them 238,857 mi. (384,403 km) into space to our neighbor celestial body, but also send them back with a successful flight to our mother earth. This seems like a difficult task for a country that was behind Russia in space exploration at the time.
The success of Apollo 11 which included the historic presence of the first humans on the moon signified the greatest extent of human intellectual advancement. Apollo 11 was part of a larger project known as the Apollo Program, comprised of a large number of unmanned test missions and 11 manned missions. The Apollo Program was intended to land humans on the moon and safely return them back to Earth. Of the 15 missions executed, six resulted in success to date. The concept of space expedition was initially sparked by the Russian launch of satellite Sputnik during the Cold War. The launch induced the creation of NASA’s first human spaceflight program called Project Mercury. A portion of the United States saw the launch as beneficial, as it established the need for the country’s advance, whereas others were concerned about what the Soviet Union will make out of this achievement. The first successful manned space expedition executed was Apollo 7, which had a tremendous influence in the outcome of the subsequent missions. Various other missions were performed before the launch of Apollo 11, some of which were unsuccessful such as Apollo 1, whereas others, like Apollo 7, had prospered in assisting in the success of Apollo 11. During the momentous mission, the participants, Neil A. Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Edwin E. Aldrin, fulfilled their roles effectively. With the actions of those that participated in the mission, the United States was able to leave a physical mark on the uncharted territory thought to have been far beyond human reach.
In the article, Neil Armstrong Facts & Biography, “Neil Armstrong was born on August 5th, 1930 in Wapakoneta, Ohio. He was a famous American astronaut, a US naval aviator, aerospace engineer, test pilot, professor, spokesman and the first human to walk on the Moon.”This tell us that he works hard to walk on the moon.When Neil Armstrong was on the test rocket ready to launch into space with his team. The rocket launch, it landed on the moon. Neil Armstrong was wearing a suit, then opening the rocket, when he first walks in the moon. The gravity had changed and the they spent two and a half an hour of the moon. According to, the article, Neil Armstrong Facts & Biography, “He set his left foot on the Moon and he uttered the famous line “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” Which means that Neil Armstrong took the first leap on the moon, which he became the first mankind to the moon. Also, in Biography of Neil Armstrong, “Neil Armstrong planted the US flag and he spent two and a half hours on the Moon’s surface. 47.5 pounds of lunar material.” He planted the US flag on to the moon to be the first person to the moon which he stays for 2 and a half hours on the moon getting lunar material. After that, they came back to NACA and reported his trip to the moon. When he was in the moon playing around and understanding how the moon was like, he works hard for a risk that he took no matter what it takes to do what he wanted in life. Now his accomplishment will be forever remain in his
“That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind,” was stated by Neil Armstrong once a national goal was accomplished. Landing successfully on the moon was a major goal for astronauts of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Neil Armstrong and Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin were honored to be the very first of mankind to step foot on the moon, and allowed America to set future goals for outer-space journeys. With the assigned Apollo mission, America was granted much needed hope. Astronauts of NASA in the Apollo Program accomplished John F. Kennedy’s goal of placing the first man on the moon safely for the United States.
“On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin were the first men to walk on the moon. Just little kids at the time, my brother and I watched history in the making.
Some Americans now ask, "Was the moon landing a hoax?" Is this actually possible; would the U.S. government lie to our nation, let alone the whole world? The answer, no, should jump out. Hoax believers (HBs) thought they researched this thoroughly and gained enough evidence to prove that the moon landing was a hoax, but they don't know jack! Their whole case can be compared to a brick house with one difference. It seems like the bricks have all the corners, sides, and shape of a house. The evidence seems to be very strong, but the bricks are only one dimensional. All the "supposed" evidence crumbles after a little research. In this report I will show HBs falsified case along with the truth.
The goal of Apollo 11 was stated very simply. Perform manned lunar landing and return mission safely. Simply stated, but almost impossible to achieve, it was the mission NASA had been preparing for almost a decade, and nobody was trying to pretend this was just another launch.
Skeptics wonder why there are numerous footprints of the astronauts while there is not an impression caused by the lunar module. Yes, it weighs seventeen tons, but puny minded people don’t realize that it landed on a super thin layer of sand, also when the module was landing the descent engines blew all the sand around while it was landing so it basically just landed on a rock where it’s not possible to leave an impression. Also, astronauts “Armstrong and Aldrin spent more than two hours outside their spacecraft on the moon” (NASA). Of course there are plenty of footprints. The sand settled before the astronauts exited the module and walked on the surface. People wonder why the footprints are so well preserved, but there is no wind on the moon to tamper with them as it would happen on Earth. Skeptics wonder why there is not a blast crater from landing the module. Again, this is due to the fact that they landed on tough rock. Even if they were to land on softer rock it still wouldn’t form a crater considering “the amount of thrust being produced by the engines at the point of landing and takeoff is very low in comparison to a landing on Earth because of the relative lack of gravitational pull” (Holt).
The 1969 Moon Landing: Real or Hoax? Apollo 11, or the Moon Landing of 1969, is a highly renowned event, and is thought by many to have never happened, due to this misunderstanding, many have come to discredit the entire event and rely on conspiracy theories. A Conspiracy Theory is “The belief that some secret but influential organization is responsible for an event or phenomenon” (Conspiracy). Conspiracy theories are often made up during times of crisis or misunderstanding, and those who believe them often are suspicious and confused about the workings of the world. While the majority of America is either neutral on the topic or believes it truly did happen, those who support this false belief often identify with those who support the idea
Kennedy spoke these famous words “we will be on the moon by the end of decade” but the united states government was nowhere near ready to have this happen. We did not possess the technology or had the money to send people to space. Was this moon landing just a fraud, a scene shot high in the hills of Hollywood. There is plenty of evidnce to prove these theories and prove this was one of the biggest hoax in history. 2001 a Space odessey was a movie filmed in the mid 60's the director Stanley kubrick was a great director and filmed this movie with props pretty close to the realy thing.
“On July 16, 1969 the world watched in anticipation as three men were hurtled skyward in a rocket bound for the moon.” (news.nationalgeographic.com). This was the Apollo 11 spacecraft, the first successful manned mission to the moon. This mission was the product of the space race (race to see who would go into outer space first, against the Soviet Union). This goal was set by President John F. Kennedy on May 25, 1961 and he promised that we would be the first to step on the moon by the end of the decade. The Apollo 11 mission is often cited as the greatest achievement in human history.

Most films are about memory in one way or another. In the case of the Disney Pixar film, “Coco”, it is about the memories that are forgotten. This is the first Disney movie that focuses on the Mexican culture and exposes an array of viewers to Dia de los Muertos, the celebration of those who have passed which is an important holiday to many. This movie also incorporates a ƒform of Alzheimer's, a communication disorder that is primarily found in the elderly. Incorporating Alzheimer's into this film is significant because according to the Alzheimer's Association 2010 Alzheimer's Disease Facts and Figures report, “Hispanics are about one and one-half times as likely to have Alzheimer's or other dementias as older whites”.
