RIP Douglas, my hero.

Shame they couldn't acknowledge him.

That was fascinating Marc.

I put where Neil and Buzz walked over the google map of my farm and the entire area traversed didn't even cover a cleared paddock probably less than a hectare.

Yeah I noticed that too. They didn't get that far hey? Even the mars rover. The pyramids are not that big at the base either but the shuttle runway is huge. ISS is smaller than I thought as well.

That's great Marc, thanks.
The size of the shuttle runway is amazing !
The Apollo 11 walkabout was interesting too.
