Welcome to Ground Control

If you didn't know, today celebrates the 40th Anniversary of the Apollo 11 Mission (That's the one where we walked on the moon). There really aren't enough words in my vocabulary to express how profound this act is. We conquered all possible odds to walk on the closest, possibly the only, reachable celestial body in the universe. That's pretty cool.

We've all seen the launch photos, and as amazing as those are, I cannot get enough of control rooms.



For the record:
