Building the Apollo Capsules: An Engineer's Memoir of the Moonshot Program and Its Debt to Hispanic Team Members
by Jim De La Rosa
This firsthand account of the development of the Apollo 11 mission gives a behind-the-scenes look at the 1969 moon landing mission from an engineer's perspective. The technical problems and solutions of designing a capsule to carry three astronauts­ — Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong and Michael Collins — safely to the moon and back are covered in detail from the author's point of view. The contributions of Latino personnel in the Apollo program are described.
