On July 20, 1969, a collective dream became reality: man landed on the Moon for the first time. The limits of what seemed possible were now redefined with the image of a footprint symbolizing this achievement.



When the ambition was set to send a man to the moon and return safe back to the earth, many people helped to make this dream of mankind come true. Thousands of engineers and technicians throughout all disciplines and countries got involved.

ZEISS became part of this challenge: camera lenses specially designed for space captured the iconic images of this monumental achievement.
