USA: The ascent stage, festooned with red ??sRemove Before Flight??? streamers, passes Apollo 11???s Saturn V Spacecraft Lunar Adapter, its eventual home for launch. Thermal blankets and micrometeoroid shields have have not yet been attached to the aft equipment bay. OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD photographs reveal never seen before images of one of humanity???s greatest achievements - the 1969 moon landing. The incredible images include a determined Neil Armstrong undergoing desert training with parachute chords draped around his neck, a dramatic close up of Michael Collins in extremely cramped conditions, and Buzz Aldrin in his iconic spacesuit during one of the final tests before blast off. More stunning shots, which have been released to mark fifty years since the landmark occasion, show all three members of Apollo 11???s crew looking quietly confident standing before the newly unveiled Saturn V space rocket and a rare perspective of the watershed moment of Armstrong planting a flag on the moon. The incredible images are included in ???Picturing Apollo 11: Rare Views and Undiscovered Moments???, a fascinating new book by J. L. Pickering and John Bisney, due for release in the UK next month.
