John F. Kennedy: We choose to go to the Moon

In September 1962, President Kennedy declared: “We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.”⁣

In just under 7 years, his goal was finally achieved on July 20, 1969 when Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first men to walk on the Moon as part of the Apollo 11 mission.
