Apollo Mission Control
Photographer: Michael Herrick
Taken: March 31, 2017
Caption: Apollo Mission Control
Additional Description: From the small speaker box on top of the nearest console mission controllers heard the first words from the moon:

“Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed.”

"That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."

And from Apollo 13: “Houston we have a problem.”
