"I'm Emmet Seabourne. You are watching NTC's special coverage of Apollo 11 to the Sea of Tranquility. The date is July 20th, the year 1969. If everything goes according to plan, an event will take place today that will forever mark the twentieth day of the seventh month of the year. I can guarantee that you will remember this day--where you are and what you are doing. This is a day mankind has anticipated ever since we first lifted our eyes into the nighttime sky and wondered what marvels wait for us on the face of our beautiful, mysterious companion in the cosmos. Today is the day we find out. Today is the day we set foot...on the Moon."
--From The Earth To The Moon, Episode 6: "Mare Tranquilitatis"
