Probably one of the highlights in my life was watching the Apollo 11 flight to the moon and back. I took a week off from my job at ICI in Sydney, rented a TV and hardly slept during the whole event.
For those who shared those feelings of excitement as man reached out beyond his home planet, NASA has some wonderful archives including the Apollo 11 audio in real time.
America and mankind at its best.
