Being significant, 2009 is not only the International Year of Astronomy, but very fitting; it is the 40th anniversary of Neil Armstrong’s first steps on the Moon. To commemorate this momentous occasion, the Isle of Man issued the eye-catching 2009 First Man on the Moon gold bullion coin. The year was 1969, when Apollo 11 was launched on July 16th from the Kennedy Space Center and was the third manned space flight towards the Moon. The Apollo 11’s crew on board included Mission Commander Neil Armstrong, Lunar Module Pilot Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin and Command Module Pilot Michael Collins. Armstrong flew “Eagle”, the lunar lander, to the Moon, along with Aldrin, landing on the Sea of Tranquility on July 20th.
