 It was July 20, 1969 when hundreds of millions of people watched on television as Apollo 11 astronaut, Neil Armstrong, walked on the surface of the moon for the first time. “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind,” Armstrong said. Those words remain famous to this day. The historic trip was not easy. In the 1960s, space travel was very dangerous. Armstrong said lates, “There were just a thousand things to worry about.”
 Although Armstrong was the first astronaut to step on the surface of the moon, astronauts Edwin Aldrin and Michael Collins, whom many people credid for the successful mission, were also abroard Apollo 11.
After the successful landing, Aldrin and Armstrong planted the U.S. flag on the moon’s soil. 
 They collected rocks and left a laque that read “Here Men From Planed Earth First Set Foot Upon The Moon. July 1969 A.D.We Came In Peace For All Mankind.”
Although the astronauts were successful in reaching the moon, an-other obstacle was returning to earth safely. Af ter successfully leaving the moon, the crew landed about 812 nautical miles off the coast of Ha-waii in the Pacific Ocean. They were met by members of the U>S. Navy to bring them safely to shore.
 Armstrong called their mission the “beginning of a new age.” Although there were flights to the moon after Apollo 11’s journey, the last trip to the moon was in 1972. We hope there will be many more moon visits to come.

    Stamp collecting is the collecting of postage stamps and related objects, such as envelopes or packages with stamps on them. It is one of the world’s most popular hobbies, with estimates of the number of collectors ranging up to 20 million in the United States alone.
    Many casual collectors enjoy accumulating stamps without worrying about the tiny details, but the creation of a large or comprehensive collection generally requires some philatelic knowledge. This is especially important for those who intend to spend large amounts for stamps.
