Apollo 8: Earthrise

Image or picture the Apollo 8 stamp of 1969

It was December of 1968 that Apollo 8 orbited the moon. For the first time, the people of earth witnessed Earthrise over the lunar surface. The image would have a profound impact on humanity.

An excellent book on this subject, Genesis : The Story of Apollo 8 : The First Manned Flight to Another World talks about this profound impact from the context of the Cold War Era.
