Edwin James, a scientist and explorer who lived from 1797 until 1861, held a wide range of experience and knowledge about a multitude of different fields. He attended the Long Expedition of 1820, which was a scientific journey along the Platte River and through the Rocky Mountains. During this expedition, he contributed by providing his knowledge of medicine, botany, and geology, as well as having kept detailed notes on the discoveries that he and the other members of the expedition made; afterwards, he went on to study Native American languages, and wrote countless books that helped shape our understanding of history and the natural world. Edwin James held a variety of occupations in his lifetime. He was born “at Weybridge, Vermont, in 1797, was graduated from Middlebury College in 1816 and later studied botany under John Torrey and James Eaton, and medicine under his brother, Dr. John James” (Wood).

This was the third successful lunar landing mission. Apollo 14 launched from Kennedy Space Center, FL on January 31, 1971 at 4:03pm. The crew consisted of Allan Shepard, the first American in space and as well as the oldest astronaut in space during the time of Apollo 14, Stuart A. Roosa, Edgar D. Mitchell. This was the last of “H” missions or missions consisting of moon walking and lunar vehicular events with a very precise landing point.
The moon landing was one of the most iconic moments in history. Viewers stood on their toes until the very moment that Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon, and they stayed there until Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin landed on American soil again. Authors The Times, William Safire, and Ayn Rand speak on the moon landing soon after the mission was accomplished. In the morning after America successfully landed the first aircraft on the moon, The Times published an article about the moon landing.
Following the framing of the constitution and the conclusion of the constitutional convention, political debate quickly developed as the ratification process began. As state representatives returned to their states, the press had already began shaping public opinion with the dispersion of the Federalist and Anti-Federalist papers. Federalists such as Alexander Hamilton and James Madison, and Anti-Federalists such as George Mason, Thomas Paine and George Clinton wrote with the intention of influencing the opinions of the American populace and the state legislatures charged with ratifying the constitution. These factions created the first instance of political parties, and the compromise between the two during the debate of ratification had a great influence on the American constitution. A primary

“Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man's desire to understand.” Neil Armstrong answered his own quote by becoming the first person to land the moon and help advance space exploration. For this reason, Neil Armstrong is the most influential person of all time. He is influential for many reasons, some being how machines for space exploration are built, also because of his many achievements and accomplishments, and for how his life story. Neil Armstrong has become a very influential person because he made a big difference to how machines are built for space exploration.
He was there when they first encountered the monolith on the moon and he is the leader of the Discovery One mission. HAL 9000 was the AI in charge of flying the Discovery One, it was incapable of making errors and made to understand human emotion. I believe all the actors were well-chosen for their individual role because while watching
On July 20th, 1969, the Apollo 11 with astronaut Neil Armstrong and his crew, guided by thousands of NASA technicians, supposedly landed on the surface of the moon. It was certainly one of the most extraordinary events accomplished by mankind up to that date. Neil Armstrong’s first words upon stepping on the moon surface will always be remembered “ A small step for mankind, a giant leap for humanity”. Ever since then, this achievement has been a matter of discussion by several groups that either believed or disbelieved this.
When Neil Armstrong first touched down on the moon in 1969, millions of people watched him take the first step and create history (Villard). Yet even as we’ve moved on from the moon landings and consider them as a pivotal point for mankind, “Forty years after U.S. astronaut Neil Armstrong became the first human to set foot on the moon, many conspiracy theorists still insist the Apollo 11 moon landing was an elaborate hoax”(Than). The idea that our voyage to the moon was deliberately staged seems to resurface year after year. While the conspiracy theorists claim the moon landing was a hoax, creating a fake moon landing would have been more expensive and difficult than actually reaching the moon. The race to the moon began on October 5, 1957, when the Soviet Union launched Sputnik into orbit around the earth: “When the Soviet Union launched the satellite Sputnik, on October 4, 1957, the United States experienced a technological identity crisis”(Olson).
