Today is the 36th anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing on the Moon, marking the first time humans walked on the Moon. For those of you with a love for accuracy, the landing occurred at exactly 4:17:40 p.m. EDT on July 20, 1969.
To commemorate this year's Apollo 11 anniversary, a few of Google's engineers created Google Moon (a Moon version of the Google Earth map application). And in typical Google fashion, they had a little fun with it - zoom all the way in on the Moon map to see what I mean.
