Apollo 11 Seal (with dinosaur)

On July 20, 1969, 50 years ago this month, NASA sent the first human beings to walk on the moon. It’s the farthest any human has been from our home, the planet we evolved on, and the same planet every single one of us lives our entire lives.

Sure, politics played a large role in making the moon landing possible. But it would never have been achieved without a healthy dose of scientific and technical curiosity. I believe the lasting legacy of Apollo 11 will be of humankind’s quest to better ourselves and to learn more about the world and universe around us.

In honor of this anniversary, I made a version of the Apollo 11 seal. You'll note the pteranodon instead of a bald eagle, but otherwise it has essentially the same elements.

Happy Moon Landing Anniversary, everyone!
