Welcome to this 29 March 2011 release of the Apollo 11 Flight Journal, part of the Apollo Flight Journal series.
Like its companion, the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal, it is intended to be a resource for all those interested in the Apollo program, whether in a passing or scholarly capacity.
This journal covers the flight of Apollo 11, eventually from launch to splashdown. As a living document
, it will continue to grow and evolve and major changes will be intimated in the appropriate internet groups.
