El águila ha aterrizado!




El águila ha aterrizado! Cuando llega el momento de establecer Águila en el Mar de la luna de la Tranquilidad, Neil Armstrong improvisa, pilotando manualmente la nave más allá de un área sembrada de cantos rodados. Durante los últimos segundos del descenso, el equipo del Águila está sonando las alarmas. Resulta ser un simple caso de la computadora tratando de hacer demasiadas cosas a la vez, pero como Buzz Aldrin después señalar, "por desgracia, surgió cuando no queríamos estar tratando de resolver estos problemas particulares."

Cuando el módulo lunar aterriza a las 4:18 pm EDT, a sólo 30 segundos de combustible permanecen. Armstrong Radios "Houston, aquí Base Tranquilidad. El águila ha aterrizado". Entra en erupción de control de la misión en la celebración como los saltos de tensión, y un controlador le dice a la tripulación "¿Tienes un montón de chicos que van a ponerse azul, estamos a respirar de nuevo."

Tecnología impulsa la exploración y estamos construyendo sobre los logros del programa Apollo para probar y volar, tecnologías de vanguardia transformadoras hoy para las misiones del futuro. A medida que desarrollamos y probamos las nuevas herramientas del vuelo espacial del siglo 21 en la trayectoria humana a Marte, una vez más a cambiar el curso de la historia.

During the final seconds of descent, Eagle's computer is sounding alarms. It turns out to be a simple case of the computer trying to do too many things at once, but as Buzz Aldrin will later point out, "unfortunately it came up when we did not want to be trying to solve these particular problems."

When the lunar module lands at 4:18 p.m. EDT, only 30 seconds of fuel remain. Armstrong radios "Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed." Mission control erupts in celebration as the tension breaks, and a controller tells the crew "You got a bunch of guys about to turn blue, we're breathing again." 

Technology drives exploration and we're building on the Apollo program's accomplishments to test and fly transformative, cutting-edge technologies today for tomorrow's missions. As we develop and test the new tools of 21st century spaceflight on the human Path to Mars, we once again will change the course of history.
