With 109 plastic components, it is ideal for modellers aged 8 and up, rated at skill level 2, and captures the essence of that extraordinary day in July 1969 when Neil Armstrong first set foot on the Moon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e109 intricately designed plastic parts depicting the Apollo 11 mission\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1:72 scale model appropriate for skill level 2 enthusiasts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCelebrates the historic moon landing on 20th July 1969\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for ages 8 and older\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn excellent introduction to space modelling from the Cold War period\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn 20th July 1969, the world was captivated as NASA astronaut Neil Armstrong stepped onto the Moon's surface, delivering a statement that became one of the most iconic in history - \"That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.\" While this is the commonly quoted line from this monumental event, does it truly convey the intended meaning? In subsequent years and interviews, Armstrong clarified that he intended to say, \"That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind,\" which is both meaningful and historically significant. The Apollo 11 mission marked the peak of the Space Race between the USA and the USSR during the Cold War. The lunar module Eagle detached from the command module Columbia, with Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin descending to the Moon while Michael Collins stayed in orbit. This mission's success achieved President Kennedy's 1961 vision of landing a man on the Moon before the decade's end, representing a pivotal moment in human exploration and technological progress. This model kit encapsulates the thrill and awe of that historic mission, enabling modellers to recreate one of humanity's most significant achievements in a miniature format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item grid__item--40\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"section section--default\" id=\"whatsInside\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"heading--3\"\u003eWhat's Inside\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"section section--default\" id=\"whatsInside\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid grid--2-col\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item wysiwyg\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic model kits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eacrylic paint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePoly cement, brush\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003einstruction sheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003epaint layout sheet and decals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Airfix","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57245417341312,"sku":"AIR-A50106","price":35.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/2858\/9896\/files\/a50106_1.jpg?v=1768407642","url":"https:\/\/railsofsheffield.com\/products\/airfix-a50106-one-small-step-for-man-model-set","provider":"Rails of Sheffield","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
