Going to the Moon
When I was a child, I often heard an ancient tale that there was a goddess on the moon, who came from the earth. The tale made me wonder if it could become a reality. Later, I learned that going to the moon from the earth was accomplished in 1969. In celebrating 50th anniversary of moon landing, a full-size image of the Saturn V rocket, which carried Apollo 11 to the moon, was projected on Washington Monument. This image of human achievement will stay with us forever.
