Apparently the Soviets tried to land on Luna at the same time we did! The aim was to land, do reconnaissance and return home 1st, thus winning the Lunar Landing Race.

They failed (came in too fast and crashed).

Here is a recording of Apollo 11's observations of the Soviet mission.

Funny, they left this out is my high school history class... <_< Stupid American education system and it's propoganda BS.

Now the question is why American educators have kept this information under wraps for so long... :v:

Also, apparently the original-original tapes of the moon landing were erased. The ones that were actually from the Apollo 11 camera itself. Luckily, copies from CBS and other organizations still exist.
