50 years ago. I thought it was the start of manned space exploration but it turned out to be the end.
Indeed...
Twas an amazing thing to live through though!
Dead right both
(and a great pic)
Am getting annoyed with the assorted pseuds getting dragged out for the TV this week saying shite like "we're going back" and "we're going to Mars"
No we're not. Celebrate the 50 years absolutely it was an amazing inspiring and brave achievement but what the anniversary really tells you is that in 50 years no one has ever come up with a good reason to go back
