Update: Apollo 11 Moon Landing, 45 Years ago: Join the Social Media Campaign

Leonard David's INSIDE OUTER SPACE

Where were you 45 years ago – on July 20, 1969?--- Leonard David

A lot of people weren't even born yet.  I was a teenager.  At the moment they stepped out, I was at my uncle's house visiting.  I recall that the picture wasn't all that great.  It was hard to tell much from it.  It may seem hard to believe, but color TV's were still not everywhere.  It may have been in black and white, but that may have been because they only took a black and white camera to the moon.  Can't recall.  It wouldn't be a surprise if we were watching it on a black and white TV.

We've got better TV's, we've got personal computers,  and we've got electronic gadgetry.  But we haven't been back to the moon and probably won't be for a long time.  Maybe not ever.  Is that progress?

Update:

No.  It looks like this.
