Apollo 11 achieved humanity's greatest technological feat when astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the Moon on 20 July 1969. The mission required a 3-day transit of 384,400 km, a flawless descent to the Sea of Tranquility with just 30 seconds of fuel remaining, and a safe return to Earth. Watched live by an estimated 600 million people worldwide, it remains the defining achievement of the Space Age.
