Neil Armstrong, Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, Jr. and Michael Collins began the first of six voyages to the Moon.
The last Apollo Moon mission returned over 36 years ago. If you were watching the Apollo flights back then, the st. Valentine's Day Massacre and the early Depression-era bankrobbers were as far back in time, then, as the Apollo voyages are today.
Of all the things that for which Richard Nixon and his party should be damned to Hell, the cancellation of the Apollo program and the axing of the production of Saturn rockets in favor of the more "cost-effective" Space Shuttle should be very high on the list.
