On April 11, 1970, at 13:13 CST Apollo 13 was launched from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida, but the lunar landing was aborted after an oxygen tank exploded two days later, crippling the service module upon which the Command Module depended. Despite great hardship caused by limited power, loss of cabin heat, shortage of potable water, and the critical need to jury-rig the carbon dioxide removal system, the crew returned safely to Earth on April 17.

On December 11, 1972, 05:33:00 UTC, Apollo 17 with Commander Eugene A. Cernan, Command Module Pilot Ronald E. Evans, and Lunar Module Pilot Harrison H. Schmitt landed in the Taurus-Littrow valley on the lunar surface and were (so far) the last men to set foot on the Moon. Apollo 17 was the eleventh and final mission of the United States' Apollo program, the sixth mission to land humans on the Moon.
On July 20, 1969 (for Western Europeans it was one day later, i.e. July 21, 3:56 MEZ) United States' space mission Apollo 11 reached the moon with the lunar module Eagle and the two astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin about 76 hours after they left earth from Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

There is apparently some video footage of Cronkite reporting on the apollo moon landings, but my crappy Hotel internet connection is too slow to watch it.
As a developer, one can write once, make it generally available for download as an .air file, have it work on all platforms. Not only that but Apollo apps can continuously check for connectivity: you shut down your computer because you are getting onto a
