On September 12, 1962, President John F. Kennedy delivered a speech that ignited the pursuit of American space exploration. His cooperative vision embodied the aspirations of all humans. Seven eventful years later, that goal was achieved when the first American astronaut set foot on the lunar surface. And the dream continues stronger than ever today. Now, JFK's words appear as never before on an impressively sized collection of Moon Mission sculptures, a testament to the challenge, to American ingenuity and to the legacy and promise of the Apollo age.
