“Today marks the anniversary of Apollo 11 moon landing,” NASA said in their tweet.

July 20th being the International Moon Day, NASA reminded the world of the Apollo 11 mission recalling how it was the first time humans stepped on a surface other than earth.

The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter recorded the clip. It has been exploring the moon since 2009 and has sent back 1.4 petabytes of data – more than any other mission ever has.
