Additionally signed on the LMP's EVA page (3-80) in felt tip, "'Magnificent Desolation,' Buzz Aldrin" and " Charlie Duke, Apollo 11 CAPCOM." The manual is comprised of six sections: general summaries and schedules, update forms, detailed timeline, detailed test objectives, consumables, and flight plan summary. Used by NASA astronaut training director Stanley Faber, the plan has several manuscript notations made in real-time throughout the mission. In fine condition, with light overall wear, and some rust marks and staple holes to the front cover (which is marked "Faber's" in blue ballpoint). Accompanied by a laser-etched presentation binder. As mankind's first lunar landing mission, the flight plan for Apollo 11 was among the most important of all documents prepared by NASA. A significant, detailed piece documenting the minute-by-minute plan for the historic first journey to the surface of the moon, nicely signed by three of the mission's essential participants.
