Apollo 8 Mission: Direct Journey to the Moon and Lunar Flight Testing

On December 21, 1968, a Saturn V rocket was launched from Florida that did something that had never been done before. It took three men outside of the orbit of the Earth. 

They didn’t just leave the Earth's orbit; they orbited the moon, and while they were in the orbit of the moon, they sent a message to Earth, which was the most widely listened to broadcast in human history up to that point. 

Learn more about the Apollo 8 mission and how it changed history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
