The 55th Anniversary of the Apollo 11 Landing on the Moon by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center Via Flickr: In July 1969, Apollo 11 astronauts Neil A. Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Edwin E. “Buzz” Aldrin completed humanity’s first landing on the Moon. They fulfilled President John F. Kennedy’s national goal, set in May 1961, to land a man on the Moon and return him safely to the Earth before the end of the decade. Fifty-five years ago, July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon. In this image, Buzz Aldren stands near a strut from the Lunar Lander as Neil Armstrong works the camera.
