| Author Notes: | Chris Gall was eight years old when men first walked on the moon, and began building and flying model rockets at about the same time. "Some smashed into pieces when their parachutes failed," he says, "but some left the earth with a shattering roar and flew to great heights. I like to think one of them made it to the moon." |
