In the 1940s (and before), we dreamed of meeting (and battling) aliens on the Moon...
...In the 1950s, we feared meeting (and battling) Commies on the Moon...
...when we actually got to the Moon in 1969, thankfully, there was nothing to fear (or fight)!
...In the 1950s, we feared meeting (and battling) Commies on the Moon...
Happy 50th Anniversary!
