This Month In Manned Space Flight History

42 years ago this December (1968) when things didn't look to good for world history, Apollo 8 made its historic flight to the Moon. This was the first manned mission to the moon and laid down the paith for Apollo 11. Many have wrote NASA during this flight and thanked them for saving 1968, a year filled with war, and death. "It's always darkest before the dawn"
