Do you have A* space knowledge? Test yourself with Sun Bingo’s lunar quiz
DO you know much about the moon? Let’s put that knowledge to the test.
On 25th May 1961, President John F. Kennedy told Congress that they should pledge to put a man on the moon and return him safely to Earth before the end of the decade.

With less than six months left to complete that challenge, on 20th July 1969, NASA astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin landed on the moon.
Approximately 6.5 hours later, they became the first humans to walk on the lunar surface.
Neil Armstrong went first and spoke the famous words: “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”.
