Fearless Pioneers

It was 40 years ago today that perhaps the greatest achievement of mankind took place as American astronauts landed on the Moon.

The bravery of these men, and those who have participated in the various programs since the inception of our commitment to space, is something to marvel at.

As an Orlando resident, we can visually see the shuttle launches and hear the sonic booms when the shuttle returns. It is breathtaking, and most in the area are big supporters of the space program.

To Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong and Michael Collins, job well done Gentlemen, and a giant step for mankind it certainly was.
