I remember a couple things... at the age of 13 my mother and I stayed up to watch the men walk on the moon. It was very surreal I remember a couple things... at the age of 13 my mother and I stayed up to watch the men walk on the moon. It was very surreal. It was kind of hard for me to fathom the distance and what was going on, hearing Neil Armstrong talk. But most of all (in hindsight) was my mom knew it as really big and should be recorded, so with Polaroid in hand, she kept snapping pictures of the TV. Then we went outside and looked at the moon, just trying to grasp what was going on. The moon that seemed close in our living room was so far away on our front lawn. Second was: going to school the next fall and seeing all the astronomy books IN COLOR after watching the B&W TV, I some how thought the moon had no color... HA!
