The moon landing
It's always been man's dream to fly like a bird in the sky.Back in 1865,a French writer once wrote about man's landing on the moon on a special airplane with three people inside,and the first person to touch the ground on the moon would be American.That was considered (被认为) to be a crazy (疯狂的) idea at that time.Over one hundred years later,on July 20,1969,however,this impossible dream did come true.
