00:00:00.360 --> 00:00:16.800
July 20, 1969. The day that changed our place in space forever.

2
00:00:16.860 --> 00:00:25.765
When Neil Armstrong took his small step and our giant leap, the whole world was watching.

3
00:00:25.840 --> 00:00:28.160
"It was hard to believe that this was really happening in front of our eyes."

4
00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:32.420
"I remember that my parents were huddled around the television."

5
00:00:38.340 --> 00:00:40.340
The astronauts are the names we know,

6
00:00:40.820 --> 00:00:42.720
but they're not the only heroes of this story.

7
00:00:43.360 --> 00:00:46.660
The engineers, the geologists, the physicists, the chemists, the biologists.

8
00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:50.880
They were all explorers.

9
00:00:51.760 --> 00:00:58.460
NASA Explorers: Apollo is an audio series that tells the stories behind the people who helped make Apollo happen,

10
00:00:58.800 --> 00:01:02.000
and the people who are still discovering things about our Moon today.

11
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:08.280
We look forward to the future of lunar exploration as much as we celebrate our past.

12
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:09.940
And ask questions like:

13
00:01:10.820 --> 00:01:13.220
What are we still learning about our Moon?

14
00:01:14.140 --> 00:01:17.040
What happened to the lost data of the Apollo era?

15
00:01:18.280 --> 00:01:21.880
And how are today's scientists helping us prepare to go back?

16
00:01:23.060 --> 00:01:27.960
You can listen to NASA Explorers on Apple Podcasts, SoundCloud and Google Play.
