Project of Apollo Mission

"I believe this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal,

before this decade is out,

of landing a man on the Moon and

returning him safely to Earth. No single space project

in this period will be more impressive to mankind,

or more important in the long-range exploration of space;

and none will be so difficult or expensive to accomplish."
