A Christmas Message From The Moon
Philip Gibson
ASIN: B018EI7ZTI
Publisher: Amazon.com Services LLC
Pages: 16

On Christmas Eve 1968, the largest worldwide television audience in history tuned in to see the Apollo 8 astronauts become the first humans to reach the Moon. Halfway through their 6-day historic mission, the astronauts broadcast live TV pictures and commentary from lunar orbit. At that time, no-one had any idea that a mere one minute of their historic journey would cause a nationwide controversy so great that it would end up in a lawsuit to be debated and decided by no less an august body than the Supreme Court of the United States.The account is written not in the conventional book format, but in the form of today's social media, imagining that the astronauts, and those following the mission, were able to post their thoughts to the public in real time.The story begins with the astronauts of Apollo 8 just minutes away from beginning their historic Christmas message to the world.
