Missions to the Moon

The story of man’s greatest adventure brought to life with augmented reality.

“That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.”

With these words, Neil Armstrong marked the climax of one of the most exciting adventures in history. The whole world watched as Apollo 11 landed on the moon – and now you can share the experience.

Man's greatest adventure is transformed on the page into a unique digital experience, fuelled by the latest AR technology:

- Activate videos from NASA’s archives, enabling you to experience history first-hand.

- Activate audio clips that tell the story through the voices of those involved.

- Reveal rare and important documents documenting man's lunar exploration. Rifle through these on your smartphone or tablet and open them full screen.

- Trigger 3D models of iconic spacecraft such as the Saturn V rocket and view them from every angle with your device.

How it works:

Once you press the play button on the app’s opening screen, simply look at the interactive pages of your Missions to the Moon book through the app. Look out for pages with interactive icons. If you don’t already have the book, tap the play button on the app's opening screen and wait for 20 seconds to get a link to a retail page outside the app where the book can be purchased.

This FREE app is available to anyone with a compatible smartphone or tablet (Android devices with both forward- and backward-facing cameras using Android 4.0.3 and above, and ARMv7 NEON processors. INTEL ATOM based devices are not supported).
