December 12, 2018: Robert Zimmerman “Genesis, the Story of Apollo 8”

 

Robert Zimmerman presented “Genesis: The Story of Apollo 8”

The event was sponsored by the Niagara Frontier chapter of the AIAA.

This event was the second in a series of events hosted by the Niagara Aerospace Museum leading up to the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 lunar landing in July, 2019.

Here is what Mr. Zimmerman had to say about his visit to the museum while he was here for the talk.

The author went into little-known details about the mission and gave some insight that few would know.
