Apollo 11 at Twenty-Five

The ExInEd program honors the 25th annual celebration of the moment
when humans first walked on the Moon with the publication of an Electronic
PictureBook authored by NASA's History Division. Apollo 11 at Twenty-
Five surveys the Apollo program from May 1961, with its announcement by
President John F. Kennedy, to December 1972, when the program ended with
the flight of Apollo 17. An "insider's" look at the struggles within
NASA to accomplish the lunar landing in the period specified by
President Kennedy, the Electronic PictureBook recalls the problems
encountered along the way and the exhilaration at the program's ultimate
success. For those who remember Apollo, the story is a poignant one. For
those too young to remember, it is an exciting adventure of discovery.
For all, the achievement of Apollo gives us cause to be proud of what we
accomplished as a nation and challenges us to look forward to the
possibilities of new programs to explore space.

Electronic PictureBooks are HyperCardЁ stacks designed to run on a color
MacintoshЁ computer with at least 2.5 megabytes of available RAM,
sufficient hard disk space to contain the Electronic Picturebook, System 7.0,
and HyperCard 2.1 or HyperCard Player 2.1.

This Electronic PictureBook is one of a series being produced by the
Exploration in Education (ExInEd) program at the Special Studies Office of the
Space Telescope Science Institute (ST ScI). The purpose of the ExInEd program
is to discover new tools and approaches to relate space science and exploration
to basic teaching and learning, and it involves searching for new ways to
assemble and distribute the results of research, particularly images.
