Here is just a taste of the stunning selection of images to be found in the book – Apollo: Through the Eyes of the Astronauts, produced by NASA to mark the 40th anniversary of the first human landing on the moon by Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins of Apollo 11, on July 20th 1969.

This is a superb book which I was lucky enough to have for fathers day. Not only are the images great but the off the cuff remarks from the astronauts are very illuminating. The book is put together by Chaikin – author of the seminal “A Man on the Moon” account of the Apollo project.
