Millions around the world watched as the Apollo 11 astronauts came in peace for all mankind to take humanity's first steps on the moon. Their mission's triumph was equally attributable to a less visible crew of nearly 400,000 people in hundreds of different organizations. This official NASA history reveals the human story behind an epic achievement. Written by a trio of experts, it chronicles the engineering and management contributions to the success of Project Apollo, starting with the creation of NASA itself and tracing the design and development of the project's spacecraft and lunar vehicles as well as their operation in space.
Refreshingly free of jargon and technical language, this accessible account focuses on the coordination of efforts behind the production of the Apollo service, command, and lunar modules. It covers three phases of spacecraft evolution: defining and designing the necessary vehicles; developing and qualifying them for the task; and operating them to achieve their objectives. The authors conducted numerous interviews with the project's participants and relied heavily on NASA's extensive archives. In addition to several appendixes, the text is supplemented with more than 100 photographs and illustrations that recapture the efforts of the dedicated team of thousands who reached for the moon.

Great toy
Great for an aggressive chewer. I was pleasantly surprised this toy lasted months with my dog chewing at it. Its one of his favorite toys! It cleans easily rinsing in the sink or running it in the washing machine &holds up very well.

Dogs love it
This our second one. The fogs destroyed the first one. Good toy and great for applying peanut butter in the grooves.

Cute durable dog toy that my puppy loves
Color: Blue, Size: 8 IN
This small light weight dog toy is very durable, super cute, and my dog loves it. My dog tears everything up but he hasn't made a dent in this; very durable and chew resistant. He seems to really like that it makes a lower squeak noise. I threw this in my cart at the last minute before checkout and I am pleasantly surprised with the quality. I would say this toy is worth the price; suitable for small to medium sized dog.

Nice toy for a bigger dog
Color: Gray, Size: 6 IN
My little rescue chihuahua has exactly one toy he can make squeak. This one is cute and he did try, but no luck. I have two large baskets of toys I've bought in the 3 years I've had him. He is only able to make one squeak. He loves it to death because he loves the squeak. It's a hedgehog that I will try to find on Amazon and replace. Poor little dog just has a very small mouth.
