Watched by millions of TV viewers, the historic Moon landing occurred on 20 July
1969 when the Apollo 11 mission touched down on lunar soil of the southern Sea
of Tranquility. The Lunar Module (LM), christened Eagle, spent 21.5 hours on the
Moon’s surface, while the Command Module (CM) named Columbia orbited above.
Space Series new item 50375 features the Eagle LM still coupled to the Columbia
CM on its approach to the Moon. The spacecraft modules possess accurate details.
Having the two modules connected like this makes for an impressive sight when
they’re exhibited on the integral display stand. The kit also makes for an
interesting education lesson, allowing modelers to understand more about this
milestone event. The Apollo 11 mission was indeed “one small step for man, one
giant leap for mankind.” And now Dragon has added one more significant step in
the Space series!
