Space Race: Week 4 (July 20-24) On July 20, 1969, the Apollo 11 spaceflight changed the way we think about the world and our place in the universe. Hours after the lunar module Eagle landed, Neil Armstrong backed down its ladder to the moon’s surface, taking “one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” It was the very first time a human set foot on a planetary body other than our Earth. Campers will make craters, design a particularly delicious diagram of the phases of the moon, and craft their own mobile space shuttle to blast off to destinations that could only come from their imaginations.
