What can earthbound humanity learn from the brave astronauts who walked on the moon? Interviews with twelve of those twenty-four lunar explorers provide readers with the answers and some valuable insights as they consider the true essence of their missions rather than the science of space exploration. Beginning with their selection for the missions, they talk about being humble, decisive, and brave. They talk about conquering fear, staying calm and focused, and having a backup plan. They talk about our future in space and provide readers with a unique look at the Apollo program.

And the view of Earth from space . . . a planet without borders, nations, or races . . . encourages us to work together for the good of our home planet.

Also included are intriguing interviews with some of the wives, leadership lessons, a short biography of each of the twenty-four moon walkers, and notes on each chapter.
