This week marks the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing.

In all, just 12 people have set foot on the lunar surface. Gene Cernan (PRON: Sir-nan) was the most recent person to do so, back in 1972.

But humans will be travelling back there within a number of years.

Brian Odom, historian at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center, spoke to Mike Smyth on the Simi Sara Show on Monday. He also spoke about the historical significance of the 1969 event.
