A HUGE Accomplishment

This photograph was taken on July 20, 1969. This was the historic day that Neil Armstrong and "Buzz" Aldrin (seen in picture above) walked on the moon on the aircraft Apollo 11. This was the first time ever that man walked on the moon. This photograph was taken by Neil Armstrong of "Buzz" Aldrin. The picture is really taken on the moon and it is so historic because walking on the moon was such a feat and so amazing. Nobody had done it and it just proved America's development through the years and through the times of trouble, we can still have amazing accomplishments.

Before this photograph was taken, no man had taken a step on the moon before, it had been tried though. The people in this specific photograph and the two me who landed on the moon probably feel so accomplished and should feel proud of themselves, but more so, proud of the United States of America. Everybody worked together to get these men up on the moon with loads of work back on earth that had to be done in order for the astronauts to be in that photograph. And if you've ever seen the movie Apollo 13, you know how much work goes into getting those astronauts into space and through outer space to the moon. Outside of the photograph is much excitement and an emotional state for Americans because this marked a landmark for their country and for them as a whole. It proved that we have developed so far from where we had been just a few years before this. Overall, this photograph just really represents accomplishment and pride for America as a whole. This day certainly changed America in a positive way no doubt.
