Millions around the world watched as the Apollo 11 astronauts came in peace for all mankind to take humanity's first steps on the moon. Their mission's triumph was equally attributable to a less visible crew of nearly 400,000 people in hundreds of different organizations. This official NASA history reveals the human story behind an epic achievement. Written by a trio of experts, it chronicles the engineering and management contributions to the success of Project Apollo, starting with the creation of NASA itself and tracing the design and development of the project's spacecraft and lunar vehicles as well as their operation in space.
Refreshingly free of jargon and technical language, this accessible account focuses on the coordination of efforts behind the production of the Apollo service, command, and lunar modules. It covers three phases of spacecraft evolution: defining and designing the necessary vehicles; developing and qualifying them for the task; and operating them to achieve their objectives. The authors conducted numerous interviews with the project's participants and relied heavily on NASA's extensive archives. In addition to several appendixes, the text is supplemented with more than 100 photographs and illustrations that recapture the efforts of the dedicated team of thousands who reached for the moon.

Not sure how sparkly
Color: Gold
Smells good, with only a slight chemical part to it that goes away. The sparkle was harder to see, but maybe that’s because it was windy when I sprayed it and it wasn’t very sunny.

Maybe it will arrive. Or maybe not.
Color: Gold
Smells great, but never on time. This time I didn't receive at all, for what I needed.

Nice glitter. Washes off cleanly and easily but stays put during the night.

It will shine/glitter up your world.
Color: Silver
My daughter loves this. She has me buy her one every Christmas and uses it to shimmer up everything! Mists out fine particles of glitter as a big poof. It does tend to get everywhere. More even when applying, unlike the brush on applicating ones.
