Apollo 11 - Fifty Years Since the Iconic Moon Mission
Global ImageWorks celebrates the dawn of the American space age with HD footage of the Apollo 11 mission to the Moon, which had historic, global significance as men reached the moon’s surface.
Fifty years ago this month, three brave astronauts stepped aboard the Apollo 11 Saturn V rocket and launched into space. In just a few short days, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin were the first humans to descend in the Lunar Lander module and set foot on the moon, while crew member Michael Collins kept the command module Columbia in its lunar orbit above the surface.
The GIW archive contains tense footage inside the Cape Canaveral and Houston control rooms, spectacular launch footage, the astronauts on the moon, and the memorable moment where US President Richard Nixon met the Apollo 11 crew
aboard the USS Hornet, while they were in quarantine.
Americans crowded around their televisions and watched in amazement as humans made that giant leap for mankind by setting foot on another world. Spectators flocked to Cocoa Beach near the launch site Cape Canaveral to experience this landmark moment - lift-off of Apollo 11.
The Global ImageWorks Apollo 11 collection features over 200 clips masterfully transferred from well preserved film to HD. Their HD NASA collection includes other missions and space related footage from the 1960s-1990s.
