Looking back on 50 years since Apollo 11 and the first footprints on the moon, then ahead to the new wave of missions to the Moon, Mars and beyond, NASA Flight Director Matt Abbott takes us on a ride through space exploration past, present and future.

Matt Abbot's entire professional career has been in support of human
spaceflight programs, beginning as a Space Shuttle Flight Dynamics student intern at NASA’s Johnson Space Center (JSC). He served for 12 years as a Space Shuttle Flight Dynamics Officer before joining the contractor team at the Canadian Space Agency in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, as an International Space Station (ISS) mobile servicing system space operations lead engineer. Matt returned to JSC after being selected by NASA as a Flight Director in October 2000, where he led Mission Control Center flight control teams during Space Shuttle and ISS operations for over 18 years. In early 2019 he took a leadership position responsible for operations integration in support of NASA’s newest human exploration programs.

Neil and Buzz went all that way, stood on the surface, looks up at the earth and stars...
... and then ignored them completely and took hundreds of photos of dust, stones and rocks and footprints.
The dust/stone/rock photos have scientific merit however as they were clean, had rounded edges and other signs of weathering, thus proving that either the moon has wind, rain and frost or that they were all taken on earth.
