Magnum Photographers 

On 20 July 1969, the Apollo 11 space mission was the first to land two people, Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong, on the Moon. Armstrong became the first person to step onto the lunar surface, reciting the immortal line “One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”. Aldrin joined him on the surface about 20 minutes later followed by another 10 astronauts from the USA and USSR over the next 4 years.
