The S3G got in our astronaut gear and embarked on the Apollo 11 Expedition and landed on the moon July 20th, 1969. We experienced the excitement and thrilling adventure of journeying to the moon and landing on the moon with the 1st American astronauts, Neil Armstrong and Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin. Neil uttered these words as he lay his puffy boots on the moon’s powdery surface: “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.” Around the globe, an estimated 530 million people watched on their televisions. From the moon, the Earth looked like the moon with shades of green, blue and white. We watched Neil and Buzz put up the American flag and headed safely home with 7% fuel remaining. We were so lucky to make it back safe and sound—landing on the Pacific Ocean. No big deal. The best part was wearing boots that each cost half a billion dollars! What a day it was.

Back in the S3G Headquarters, we built Apollo 11 Rockets. The S3G Astronauts were relieved to unbuckle their seat belts and get out of the heavy space gear after 109 hours and 19 minutes of space mission time elapsed and get their hands on constructing rockets.

The S3G were intensely focused. Everyone stayed fastened until the captain gave us the clear to unbuckle.
