well i always remember my mum (God rest her soul), telling me to watch it on a B&W Pye TV with her and my dad. She said i would always remember it...

i didnt understand it until she took me outside and pointed at the moon and said they are up there....

I didn’t arrive down here in the Melbourne area until 1979 and was not employed in the space program directly but Mrs. shove_it and I enjoyed a few Friday evenings at the Mouse Trap for dinner and drinks in the early 1980s. We did not go to the Pillow Talk Lounge though. It must have really been wild in the early days in Cocoa Beach on Friday nights.
