Watching “The American Experience: Race to the Moon” tonight on PBS about the Apollo program and more specifically Apollo 8, which was the first trip to the moon, choked me up quite a bit. The whole program was beautifully put together, but it went beyond the standard fair – this included candid photos and footage of the wives and children waiting with held breaths or gaping mouths.

Not only does it make me exceedingly proud to know that my brother, who has dreamed of being part of spaceflight since he could talk, is now following the footsteps of such a program, but it made me proud to see what humanity can achieve. And here is the rest of it.
