The Moon Landing


On Monday 21 July 1969 at 9.55 a.m. West Indonesian Time, Neil Armstrong
and Buzz Aldrin made history as the first men to step on the Moon's surface.
From the moment the spaceship Apollo 11 left the Earth, at 8.32 p.m. on July
16, the journey to the Moon had been full of tense moments because, in the last ten
miles before landing, the computer of the ship's navigation system warned that it
was being asked to do too much work. This could have caused failure. Fortunately,
this problem was immediately solved.
Broadcast on live TV to a world-wide audience, Neil Armstrong, the astronaut
lifted his foot from the landing pad of his ship, and slowly and carefully, stepped
onto the Moon's surface. He found out that he could move easily. Confidently, he
moved slowly away from his ship. He was greatly surprised to see his footprints in
the soft lunar sand. Taking a look at the view around him, Armstrong remarked, “Its
not only different, but it's also pretty out here.”
Twenty minutes later, Edwin Aldrin, Armstrong's fellow astronaut, joined
him. Both were so pleased with their new experience that they almost forgot to
collect a few samples of lunar soil. They spent about two and a quarter hours
together outside the spacecraft and collected 47.5 pounds (21.5 kg) of lunar
materials for return to Earth for observation.
Apollo 11 effectively marked the end of the space race with Soviets. The
success of the Moon landing showed that U.S. technology was superior to that of the
Soviets.
Match the words in bold with their meaning!

Member of the same group Failure
The outside part of an object Confidently
In a way that produced a desired Fellow
result Effectively
Lack of success Superior
Having belief in one’s ability
