 July 20, 1969: One Giant Leap For Mankind ☽ ☾  

Apollo 11 was the spaceflight that landed the first two humans on the Moon. Mission commander Neil Armstrong and pilot Buzz Aldrin, both American, landed the lunar module Eagle on July 20, 1969, at 20:18 UTC. Armstrong became the first to step onto the lunar surface six hours later on July 21 at 02:56:15 UTC; Aldrin joined him about 20 minutes later. They spent about two and a quarter hours together outside the spacecraft, and collected 47.5 pounds (21.5 kg) of lunar material to bring back to Earth. Michael Collins piloted the command module Columbia alone in lunar orbit while they were on the Moon’s surface. Armstrong and Aldrin spent just under a day on the lunar surface before rendezvousing with Columbia in lunar orbit.

Waiting to lift off on a near 8-day mission in space for Gemini 5. The Titan II rocket sits upon the launch pad at Cape Kennedy waiting for things to proceed. Gordon Cooper (2nd & last spaceflight) & Pete Conrad (rookie spaceflight) flew the 1965 mission which broke the Soviet’s Vostok 5 record for crewed space duration (4 days & 23 hours) set 2 years earlier. G5 marked the 1st time an American crewed mission held such a record (7 days & 23 hours). Their flight could have lasted 1 day longer but the approach Hurricane Betsy changed plans!

What?! Uh oh. Uh oh. I got the bloodlust.

One of the things that sucks about being an animation nerd is having to live with the fact that, from a technical standpoint, the Hotel Transylvania movies are absolutely ground-breakingly staggeringly incredible.

there is honestly nothing more gorgeously tacky than bowling alley carpet
