Original Mission Video as aired in July 1969 depicting the
Apollo 11 astronauts conducting several tasks during
extravehicular activity (EVA) operations on the surface of
the moon. The EVA lasted approximately 2.5 hours with all
scientific activities being completed satisfactorily. The
Apollo 11 (EVA) began at 10:39:33 p.m. EDT on July 20,
1969 when Astronaut Neil Armstrong emerged from the
spacecraft first. While descending, he released the
Modularized Equipment Stowage Assembly on the Lunar
Module's descent stage. A camera on this module
provided live television coverage of man's first step on the
Moon. On this, their one and only EVA, the astronauts had
a great deal to do in a short time. During this first visit to
the Moon, the astronauts remained within about 100
meters of the lunar module, collected about 47 pounds of
samples, and deployed four experiments. After spending
approximately 2 hours and 31 minutes on the surface, the
astronauts ended the EVA at 1:11:13 a.m. EDT on July 21.
