In 1962, US President JF Kennedy promised to moon before 1970. It was seven more years before NASA figured out how to do it. In July 1969, when time was running out, three astronauts carried out the historic mission on board Apollo 11. American astronaut Neil Armstrong opened the hatch and became the first man to walk on the moon. In Houston engineers who were on duty at mission control breathe a sigh of relief when they saw Armstrong step onto the moon. All over the world, people were watching  TV and they cheer as they heard Armstrong say his famous words: “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”. Armstrong came up with his famous words after landing on the moon.

 

Es.6 pag32

Space exploration is very expensive - we should solve problems on earth first such as poverty and starvation. — I don’t agree, because I think knowledge can’t have limits, even for money.

The earth’s population is growing - we will need to live on another planet. — I agree, because I think it’s a great idea.

We need space exploration to answer big questions: are we alone? Are there other forms of life out there? — I agree, because I want to know the answer to these questions.

My parents searched me for half an hour and later they called the police to fined me. I decided to sit on the street and attend that someone passed there. I was a horrible experience.

The year was 1969. I was twelve and I was in the classroom. The Science teacher came in. We had a Science test that day I was getting ready to begin, when, all of a sudden the teacher told us to stand up.
“We are going to the lab” he said. We were really surprised! Our Science teacher never changed his mind! But he said it was a special day, so we went to the lab.
there was a TV set in a lab. The teacher switched it on. Just in theme to see the first man on the moon! When he switched on, astronaut Neil Armstrong was opening the hatch. First, he descended a ladder and he started walking around. After that, astronaut Aldrin joined Armstrong on the surface, and we heard him describe the view with the phrase “Magnificent Desolation!”.
it was great, but in the end the Science lesson finished and we had to return to our classroom. However, I’m so glad the teacher allowed us to participate in an event I’ll never forget. And, most important, that’s how I became interested in space travel.

"Quasi amici" is a comedy film but in the same time is a moving film.

The film was directed by Oliver Nakache and Eric Toledano.
