Apollo 11 40 years anniversary

Apollo 1140 years ago Apollo-11 approached the Moon and it's lunar module (called "Eagle") landed on the Moon's surface. First step on the Moon has been made by astronaut Neil Armstrong. His words entered the history: "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind". Astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin spent 2.5 hours on the Moon and collected over 20kg of Moon rock samples. On the way back to lunar module, astronauts accidentally broke an engine switch and had to use felt-tip pen to fix it. Three days later (July 24th) astronauts returned back to Earth.
Happy anniversary Apollo 11!
