Description

"The Apollo XI flight began with launch from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida"

AMS signed "Buzz Aldrin," one page, 8.25 x 11.75, no date. Handwritten manuscript by Buzz Aldrin, reflecting on the Apollo 11 mission. In full: "The Apollo XI flight began with launch from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida, U.S.A., at 13:32 G.M.T. on July 16, 1969. During the flight, the lunar module was separated in lunar orbit from the command module and descended to the lunar surface. After a period of surface exploration by Commander Neil Armstrong and myself, the Lunar Module Pilot, the vehicle was staged and the ascent stage lifted off the lunar surface. A rendezvous was performed with the Command Module and the ascent stage was jettisoned in lunar orbit. The return trip and entry were normal, and the spacecraft landed in the Pacific Ocean at 16:60:00 G.M.T. on July 24, 1969." In very fine condition.
