"At the start of 16 July 1969, just after midnight, I boarded the Apollo 11 capsule to go through a several hundred item 'switch list' to assure the ship was ready for crew ingress. I was very excited to be a part of this historic mission leading to our first landing on the Moon. David's book gives one a great perspective of the excitement and experience of someone outside the Apollo Program!" - FRED HAISE, Astronaut, Apollo 11 Backup and Apollo 13 Lunar Module Pilot Photo Credit: David Chudwin BUY THE BOOK NOW Music Track"Blues for Sagan" from the Suite Poetry of Earth and Sky roarelectra.bandcamp.com Twitter MikeDawsonMusic All music by Mike Dawson © ℗ Beecher’s Brook Publishing, Inc.
