On 20 July 1969, US astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the
first men to walk on the moon. NASA Mission AS-506 Apollo 11 Owners'
Workshop Manual is the story of the Apollo 11 mission and the 'space
hardware' that made it all possible. This manual looks at the evolution
and design of the mighty Saturn V rocket, the Command and Service
Modules, and the Lunar Module. It describes the space suits worn by the
crew and their special life support and communications systems. We learn
about how the Apollo 11 mission was flown - from launch procedures to
'flying' the Saturn V and the 'LEM', and from moon walking to the earth
re-entry procedure. This new edition of the book celebrates the 50th
Anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing.
