Internet's latest viral obsession, #MannequinChallenge, just got won by NASA

The internet has sunk its teeth into yet another viral trend called the "#MannequinChallenge," where groups of people pose as if they are frozen in time.

On Thursday, NASA took the challenge to a new level after students at the Johnson Space Center pretended to celebrate the historic Apollo moon landing by striking a pose inside mission control.

It's difficult to tell what exact moment these NASA mannequins are recreating, after all, the moon missions are filled with dozens of tension-filled moments that erupted into celebration.

It could be the moment Neil Armstrong radios "Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed," or when half a billion people watching on television hear him declare "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind."
