On 16 July 1969 at 9.32 a.m. the gigantic Saturn V launched from Cape Canaveral on the most important journey in the history of mankind. The giant Saturn V consisted of three main stages, was 110 m high and weighed 3,000 tons. It could carry a payload of 50 tons and reached a speed of 11.2 km/second. The 394,000 km journey to the moon lasted 72 hours. After reaching a low Earth orbit, the upper assembly with the Apollo capsule received thrust from the third stage of the launcher to reach flight speed to the Moon. The Apollo assembly detached from the rocket, turned, and pulled the Lunar Module out of its protective casing. Coupled together, this unit reached the moon and swung into a lunar orbit. The lunar module then separated with astronauts N. Armstrong and E. Aldrin on board from the command capsule, in which astronaut M. Collins remained.
