Filled with illustrations from the NASA archives, this book examines the totality of the Apollo program from President Kennedy’s 1961 declaration to Neil Armstrong’s “one giant leap for mankind.” But before that historic July 1969 success, there were other successes, and catastrophic failures.

The Apollo 1 fire. Apollo 12 struck by lightning, not once but twice. The Apollo 13 explosion that crippled the spacecraft and ended their dream of landing on the moon. High costs, indeed.

The Apollo 15 Lunar Rover. Apollo 16’s “House Rock.” Apollo 17’s discovery of orange soil. Amazing successes.

The astronauts, the rocket engineers, and so many others working together, succeeded in making John Kennedy’s impossible dream a reality.

A bibliography for further reading is included.

Highly recommended.

Good book. The stories are short, yet informative.
