Apollo 11 Mission

Overview

I made this website using html and bootstrap for my Junior Cycle Coding Project. My project is about the Apollo 11 mission and what was happening in the world during that time period.
The Apollo 11 mission was the first crewed mission to land on the Moon. It was launched on July 16, 1969, and landed on the Moon on July 20, 1969. The crew consisted of Commander Neil Armstrong, Command Module Pilot Michael Collins, and Lunar Module Pilot Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin.

Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the lunar surface, while Michael Collins remained in orbit around the Moon aboard the command module.

The primary objective of the Apollo 11 mission was to achieve a crewed lunar landing and return safely to Earth. The mission aimed to demonstrate the United States' technological and scientific superiority in the space race against the Soviet Union during the Cold War era.

Additional objectives included collecting lunar surface samples, conducting scientific experiments, and deploying various instruments to study the Moon's surface and environment.

Legacy

The success of the Apollo 11 mission marked a significant milestone in human history and space exploration. It demonstrated the feasibility of crewed lunar landings and showcased the capabilities of the American space program.

The Apollo program as a whole contributed to advances in technology, science, and engineering, and inspired generations of people around the world to pursue careers in space exploration.
