In
the Mission Operations Control Room of the Mission Control Center,
Building 30, Manned Spacecraft Center, flight controllers applaud the
splashdown and success of the Apollo 11 lunar mission.
Four
days earlier on July 20, 1969, mission commander Neil Armstrong and
lunar module pilot Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon. Armstrong, Aldrin and
command module pilot Michael Collins splashed down in the Pacific Ocean
on July 24, successfully completing the mission.
