On the Editor's Bench

摘要

Like many readers, I have been following the Apollo 11 lunar mission as closely as when I was a space-obsessed six-year old. Using a marvellous website apolloinrealtime.org I have been able to watch highlights including the launch, landing and return, and many points in between exactly fifty years on from when they happened. I even set an alarm for the small hours to watch Neil Armstrong's 'small step' to make up for having to watch a recording as a boy!
