NEW PROMPT: NASA is celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the first moon landing back in July, 1969. In honor of that momentous occasion, write a STORY or POEM reacting to watching the first moon walk on television forty years ago (the one on the moon's surface, not the one by Michael Jackson). Even if you weren't alive or didn't witness it, you can google it for more information to help you out, and create a fictional remembrance. Have fun! PIONEERS! Two brave scientists did the unimaginable; they walked out onto the moon! Many said that feat was unachievable; the scientists sang a different tune and wisely marched to another beat, the beat of the pioneering drum, the beat that let them see outside of their box, step outside of their comfort zone, and walk on another world, on national T.V. At the time that I was studying pioneers, with their conestoga wagons, in middle school, these brave airborne pioneers ventured out of their spaceship to take their small step for man, at the same time taking their giant leap for mankind. On an illuminated surface that most of us related to green cheese, science and history were made.
