Moon Landing Newspaper Article by 5G

This week we have been studying the 1969 Moon Landing! We have produced newspaper articles as if we were reporting this incredible event the day after it happened. Here is Asher's report.

Mystical Moon Touched By Humans!

Yesterday the most tremendous thing happened!Neil Armstrong,with Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins,were the first people to set foot on a celestial body (the Moon).The tense run up to this incredible event has been named the 'Space Race'.It has been a phenomenal race between the USA and Russia to see who could put a human on the moon first. The Russians are of course, adamant that this is a hoax.

Once Neil Armstrong had set foot on the Moon,he stated, "That's one small step for man,one giant leap for mankind." After only twelve minutes of starting their journey,they had been rapidly rocketing at aspectacular speed of 17,000 miles per hour.The whole world had been in awe as the lunar surface felt a human body touch it for the first time ever.

Neil Armstrong had thought it would take forever to get to the Moon, however it actually only took them four days to arrive. Soon after entering the Moon's orbit, they disembarked with Neil Armstrong becoming the first person to step on the Moon's terrain.Twenty minutes later, after Armstrong had gathered soil and rock samples for scientists to study, Buzz Aldrin joined him in the historic moment, and the two men have reported the awe they felt, gazing at the Earth from the vantage of another celestial body.
