Food Of The Apollo 11 Lunar Landing


The Apollo 11 flight is remembered as a giant leap for mankind, a moment when the world came together to watch Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin hop, skip, and jump across the lunar surface.

The food aboard Apollo 11 represented the height of late 1960s technology, as much as the Lunar Landing Module or the spacesuits worn on moonwalks. Tubes of apple sauce and stew were ditched for meals that could be heated by the astronauts and eaten with real silverware.
