The Apollo program was a human space flight program undertaken by NASA during the years 1961 – 1975 with the goal of conducting manned moon landing missions. President John F. Kennedy announced this goal in 1961, and it was accomplished on July 20, 1969 by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin during the Apollo 11 mission. Five other Apollo missions also landed astronauts on the Moon, the last one in 1972. These six Apollo space flights are the only times humans have landed on another celestial body. The Apollo program, specifically the lunar landings, is often cited as the greatest achievement in human history.

Apollo 8 was the first manned voyage to a celestial body. Its three-man crew of Mission Commander Frank Borman, Command Module Pilot James Lovell, and Lunar Module Pilot William Anders became the first humans to see the far side of the Moon. The mission also involved the first manned launch of a Saturn V rocket, and was the second manned mission of the Apollo Program.

Originally planned as a low-earth orbit Lunar Module/Command Module test, the mission profile was changed to the more ambitious lunar orbital flight in August 1968 when the Lunar Module scheduled for the flight became delayed. The new mission's profile, procedures and personnel requirements left an uncharacteristically short time-frame for training and preparation.

After launching on December 21, 1968, the crew took three days to travel to the Moon. They orbited ten times over the course of 20 hours, during which the crew made a Christmas Eve television broadcast in which they read the first 10 verses from the Book of Genesis. At the time, the broadcast was the most watched TV program ever. Apollo 8's successful mission paved the way for Apollo 11 to fulfill U.S. President John F. Kennedy's goal of landing a man on the Moon before the end of the decade.

The Apollo 11 mission was the first manned mission to land on the Moon. It was the fifth human space flight of Project Apollo and the third human voyage to the Moon. Launched on July 16, 1969, it carried Commander Neil Alden Armstrong, Command Module Pilot Michael Collins and Lunar Module Pilot Edwin Eugene 'Buzz' Aldrin, Jr. On July 20, Armstrong and Aldrin became the first humans to land on the Moon, while Collins orbited above. The mission fulfilled President John F. Kennedy's goal of reaching the moon by the end of the 1960s, which he expressed during a 1961 speech: "I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth."

If you live in the United States - Please note: Shipping and handling covers more than just the actual shipping costs. It covers a lot of other things like insurance, shipping material (plastic shipping wrap, card board, sheet protectors, labels, etc.). My time spent packaging, delivering items to the Post Office, etc. I am also differently-able person (handicapped)

Please note: My poor health has finally got the best of me and I can no longer ship packages without the help of someone else. I will now only ship packages on Friday. Any payment received after Friday morning means that item(s) will not be shipped until the following Friday. There will be times that my health will be better and I will try my best to get packages shipped sooner than Friday and some days, I might be able to ship the next day after payment. If for some reason, you do not like the new changes or my shipping methods and time (7 days), please do not bid. Thank you for understanding. If you live outside the USA, you will need to contact me for shipping cost. You should do this before you bid. Expect your winning item to arrive safely within a 14 days (or less, depending on customs) after payment. Thank you

Some bidders choose to use feedback in a manner in which I believe goes against the fundamental principle for its existence. Many people never even post feedback, so I only respond to feedback which is posted for me.

I will immediately post feedback for you after your positive feedback is received. If you have a problem with an item please let me know immediately. I want my customers to be happy with their order.

I will leave feedback in kind for any received.

Did You Know? If a seller receives more than a few Detailed Seller Ratings of less than 5 star's, then they will be significantly penalized. You may think that you are leaving a reasonable rating by giving a seller DSR's of 4 star's, but eBay's feedback system treats anything less than a 5 star's as sub-standard and penalizes sellers for DSR ratings that average under 4.60 stars. So please, if you feel that you need to leave less than five stars, please e-mail me first so I can fix it. Also, I put in all my eBay auctions that I only ship once a week because of poor health. Leaving less then a five stars on shipping time would be wrong, because you don't like my shipping terms. If you have a problem with my shipping terms, please do not bid. Thank you for understanding.

My Guarantee to you: I do not issue "COA's" as they are absolutely meaningless. The UACC does not use certificates of authenticity, nor does it endorse the use of such certificates. They are not worth the paper they're printed on. Anyone with a printer can make a COA, and if they're going to forge an autograph, they won't hesitate to make a COA. I offer a full money back guarantee, which is 100% better than a COA. I've been on eBay for 9 years, so I'm someone you can trust and will be on eBay in the future! I do ship worldwide, however, many countries imposes their own customs, duties, tariffs, taxes, etc., on items being shipped from a foreign country and it is the sole responsibility of the buyer to pay these taxes & fees. PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME TO LIE ON CUSTOM FORMS.

Please note: For my international friends and bidders, please pay using PayPal and I need a first and last name and telephone number for the custom forms. I do combine shipping for a discounted shipping price for The United States and International shipping. This price is determined by combining the weights of all items purchased and then reconfiguring the shipping price based on the actual weight of the combined items. The more you purchased the more the discount in most cases. I start with the largest item and whatever will also fit in the package, I will add. Usually it will be one or two dollars per item additional.

I do not believe in making a profit on shipping and handling! I only charge actual shipping, plus the cost of any new boxes, packaging materials I may use, and insurance cost. When possible, I try to ship in used boxes to save my customers money. I never charge a bogus “handling fee” and I always refund any overcharge in shipping fees via Paypal. (I frequently buy on Ebay too, and I hate to be ripped off by excessive shipping and handling charges!) I don't believe in making a profit off of shipping, but I do past on whatever additional cost for packing materials needed for your items. Again, usually this cost is between one and two dollars above USPS shipping cost. 99% of the time it is one dollar or less for packing materials. Any extra shipping fees paid, will be refunded to you if not used. If you have any questions on my combined shipping policy feel free to email me.
