In 1969 , Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin were taking 'one small step for man' and 'one giant leap for mankind'. They were landing on the moon, and stepping onto totally unclaimed territory. This was pivotal for the world's future as it proved we could literally do anything we put our mind to - thus leading innovative young designers into the 70's.

(Source: biography.com) Neil Armstrong in his space suit - it was Armstrong who said the iconic 'one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind' when setting foot on the moon; both astronauts have been an inspiration for many.
There has been some speculation as to whether the Apollo mission actually landed or not; many of the scenes look as if they've simply been projected or green-screened in. Personally I don't know, but whatever happened it's sparked off new belief in the public.
