Kennedy challenged the United States to land a man on the Moon before the end of the decade. At the time, America had only minutes of spaceflight experience and lacked nearly every technology required to accomplish the mission. Over the next 98 months, more than 400,000 scientists, engineers, technicians, and factory workers helped transform an impossible dream into reality. Rather than focusing solely on astronauts like Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, Charles Fishman shines a spotlight on the thousands of lesser-known people who made Apollo possible. Rea
