Apollo 11 50th Anniversary

[Kobuk]

50 years ago today, Apollo 11 lifted off from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on it's way to the moon. And 4 days later, American astronauts would land on the moon and take their first steps on another celestial body.

Found on DA.  "Houston, this is Tranquility Base. The furries have landed."

Weather permitting, we hope to stage a model rocket demonstration launch for local television stations on Saturday. I have several Saturn V replicas in the fleet.

We had a good turnout for Saturday's model rocket launch. A looming storm may have kept the TV crews at bay. Launched and recovered three different Saturn V models. Later, we attended an Apollo 11 presentation at a local planetarium.

Sounds like fun!
