Neil Armstrong interviewed by Patrick Moore (1970)
| Some months after apollo 11 Patrick Moore asked Neil Armstrong about the visibility of stars and planets from the space, the colour of the Moon surface, the perception of distance on the Moon, the difference between far and near side and the possibility of set up stable bases on our satellite in the future. This interview was part of the episode of The Sky at Night aired on November 19th, 1970. See it on BBC site. |
"I'm quite certain that will have such [lunar] bases in our lifetime, somewhat like the Antarctic stations and similar scientific outposts continually manned."
