day on july 14th. me. just being on the move just fall in love with me. first of all it's beautiful. we've looked at it since we were children and seen the face in the moon. we go to the pool. we choose to go to the mall and just became do the other things not because they are easy but because they are. the moon landing on july 20th 1969 fulfilled a dream of humankind the pictures went around the world.

it's become film history and part of pop culture. the moon and other celestial bodies have always captured the imagination why does outer space fascinate us out and what is it about the moon landing that continues to hold our attention a cosmic trip through arts film and music. it's amazing. a small step a giant leap. it was the 1st time a human had stepped foot on the moon. mankind had left. the footprint in space.

these images are reflected in our collective memory. it was far more than a scientific expedition it was the fulfillment of an age old dream of mankind an exhibition project examines the way artists 7 approached it high heels on the moon silly for at least pointed reference to the under-representation of women in space flight this installation carries a touch of the poet earth's moon earth in 2007 scottish artist katie benner isn't transmitted beethoven's moonlight sonata in morse code to the moon which bounced it back to the earth in runtime of the we here a piece that's been on the island and acquired slight variations from the original because on the way the sound was swallowed by a crater oh got lost. or public official on the waterfront long ago just.

lost in space but fortunately this time it was only musical notes. before the landing artists regarded the moon above all is a mystery a celestial body an embodiment of fears and desires especially for surrealists lecturing me about that. within just a few years the movie that symbolized very different fears and desires the space race was on who will win the soviets or the americans it was the dawn of the speccy. ringback many artists took a critical perspective on it. others were fascinated by the technology among them british pop artist richard hamilton. doubtless for he actually sense that this

moon landing this spice rice program would very noticeably affect our daily lives inside the concept of streamlining in design for instance or lightweight materials and the miniature a station of technology. 969 as soon as they landed the americans planted their flag on the moon a gesture that inspired pop artist and you all as late as 97 just before his death . it was billed as a mission for all mankind that heralded in a new era the euphoria spread to countries that had recently thrown off the yoke of colonialism spaceflights objects on stamps cutter r.t.r. used them in his painting. british nigerian artist chink or show any body suggests a space walk in wax print suits it's

a multi-faceted work centered on themes of colonialism it seems to be asking why things are a bit more colorful up there in more ways than one. that started because it shot many segments of society the black and asian communities all women have never been to the moon the job process called for men if a certain age and this whip refers to that fact in a very ironic why ornish off the top thought. that zambia had a space program of its own in the early 1960 s. . lack of funding may have spilled its doom but the vision has retained its explosive political force to the present day. the most famous image in the exhibition isn't an artwork on december 24th 1968 apollo 8 astronaut. william manders made the earth rise photo revealing

a shining yet fragile world. the summit site that was at the time of the vietnam war of terrible conflicts and the 1st environmental problems and of the hippie movement that expressed the desire for alternatives and we live on a planet on which we somehow have to get along and put an end to all the nationalist conflicts. on and much less moms on which is not so what is the shift to. the moon landing changed our view of our blue planet after decades of manned space travel no other planet has been found where human kind could live. the moon news no longer an object of fear and designer now it's the earth itself.

the big orchestra and plenty of spectacle to celebrate the half century anniversary of the moon landing. with oscar winning soundtrack composer hans zimmer and steve by one of the world's best guitarists. then brian may astrophysicist and queen's lead guitarist. the concert spectacle opened the start of this festival we met the man who started it all. all these guys are really my heroes and so i could never never imagine that one day i'm going to put together a festival to bring all these heroes of my childhood all my get together and i feel a part of the festivities that i am paying tribute to all of that. garrick israelian here next to brian may is a. fessor of astrophysics native to armenia he launched the stardust festival in

2011 on the canary islands bringing artists together with veteran astronauts and scientists and not just any scientists but such big names as stephen hawking. i think the main goal of stubbornness as i say suspicion this is that's why they said it me we should create a festival over people out inspired and the one of the race to inspire them is actually to bring these guys together to have buzz aldrin on stage with brian may correct people see real heroes and treat them like stars. the 5th edition of the festival was held in zurich switzerland the idea was to bring star mist closer to the center of europe and pay tribute to swiss aerospace research like the solar wind composition experiment developed in bam it was the only non american experiment aboard apollo 11. on the 50th

anniversary of the 1st moon landing everything at star most was about the moon and the u.s. apollo missions of the 1960 s. and seventy's america's goal was to put a human on the moon before the soviet union did. but what is the moon's attraction besides the purely physical. the fascination of born is because you can see that every guy above the beach is there and he makes a tree. look at that 1st of all it's beautiful. just being on the moon. you just fall in love with it it's our. purpose build space station. i think has a very special role in the history of humanity creating making people treat write songs about the moon and feeling part of the lives. astronauts have always credited

science fiction writers like jules verne with sparking their imaginations and in turn the achievements of spaceflight inspired art. some astronauts have become artists in their own right like nicole stott who painted watercolors in space not an easy task. the water behaves a little bit differently in microgravity than it does down here so i had a little floating balls of water that i would use to dip my brush into and i painted a painting based on a picture of probably one of the most beautiful things i saw which was this little chain of islands on the northern coast of venezuela called us rochas and to me i remember looking out the window at it and it looked like somebody had already like they'd taken a big paintbrush and painted this wave on the ocean i think our planet is art i started to like looking at earth with this idea of art appreciation you see the universe and it's all it's orderliness and all its beauty and this thing you know

how did this just happen by accident. this is the designer i call it god. charles dupes perspective on many things has changed he was 36 years old when he piloted apollo 16 making him the youngest man ever to walk on the moon he spent a total of some 20 hours there his lympics his attempt to jump as high as possible almost cost him his life. don't ever do anything in space that you had practiced all over to me apollo was. an adventure in a technical mission that i had a job to do and i was focused on my own i can't say get more come back i would like to live on the moon forever but certainly stay 2 more hours would have been a great place and come over. back home he was welcomed. accolades but

also skepticism even now some conspiracy theorists claim the moon landings were staged on earth were they faked the evidence is overwhelming that we landed on the moon we have. probably $300.00 kilos of moon rocks that are totally different than rocks the russians knew we went to the moon we want to race with them they tracked us we landed they never said it was a lie they knew we were on the moon and we did it now in terms we went to the moon if you go to fake so do it once and shut up. important to remember is that the apollo missions had a major political motivation they were expensive risky and always controversial their success gave us modern day heroes though some may see them as american space cowboys the star most best of all is yet another tribute to their admirable teamwork and contributions to science and technology and to music.

among them is brian eno he was awarded the stephen hawking medal at the festival for the release of his legendary 1983 apollo album. in addition researchers have even named an asteroid after him. somewhere out there a little brian eno is tumbling through space who else can say that about themselves . we met the english musician at the festival for tea and a chat. for. toothpaste flavored tea. with you know how do you remember the moon landing off 969 what did you do back then. i had just left out school and i was living in la the next door to my old painting professor we sat in the kitchen looking at his little television. and it

was getting evening and there was a full moon in the sky. i think. that's actually where they are now those people out there and it was an incredible moment with everything contracting into this moment in time and of course i realize that was a very historic point in the history of the human race so although the apollo missions were you know a military technological industrial. thing they were also. it was a piece of art it was this idea. hey we could do this we could make this happen how did it inspire you as an as an artist as a musician i didn't suddenly go and start making space music but i was already working with electronics and electronic instruments that the kinds of sounds that they produced were unearthly i kept finding myself thinking about

the universe instead of the earth thinking about you know galaxies and. the emptiness of space for example and i started to think actually most of the universe is silence the only place that there is any. actual noise is on earth you need an atmosphere for there to be noise so we are the noise in the universe as far as we know we don't know any other source of noise. it's us just us . but when you say space the silence how difficult is it then to transform that into music when you say you put on very long reverberations on the side and you think god that sounds so spacey you know there have been all these devices in the history of music called space echo and space chamber but of course in the space there's no echo.

there's no sound so so we've created a human fantasy about what space is like and all that we know is that it's very big . i started to think that composing making music i should say was such an unusually human function so we do this thing called making music for quite mysterious reasons i think and i think one of the reasons is it's a way of saying i am here. mankind sexy. to explore space. far away. and the circumstances of. the moon landing was mostly a giant leap for mankind it was also reflected in popular culture shock for example

in david bowie song space odyssey it's about an astronaut who ends up drifting in space for a. plan to slowly get sound you claim that it relates. to that it loves you yeah yeah sure was. the song was released days before the start of the apollo 11 mission but the b.b.c. refused to play it until the astronauts had returned safely to worth the trouble to understand to lose all a little close to love you was always inspiration for the song didn't come from the apollo mission from a science fiction film. stanley kubrick's 2001 a space odyssey.

advertisements for the film called it the ultimate trip and always good probably the great. it was the light 960 s. after all and many young people were experimenting with psychoactive drugs. in august 19th $69.00 the woodstock festival took place in the u.s. a key event in the history of popular music and american counterculture. always song space oddity reached the top 5 on the good shots and went. released in 1975 it went to number one the song has been covered by many artists. even in space. to leach it. in

2013 the international space station commander chris hadfield sang a version of the song at the end of his mission hadfield changed the lyrics slightly so that major tom returned to earth safe and sound to. you. tube channel 11 mission required a massive effort an estimated 400000 people took part in developing the technology of the moon landing had a huge influence on the movies nasa itself delivered spectacular pictures in july 969 shortly before takeoff it was perhaps the greatest human adventure of all time and would be covered on live t.v. like the one. as far as responsibilities. that's relatively difficult to answer. a new documentary on apollo

11 features digitally it was stored footage from nasa as. some of the video has never been seen before. you have to kind of what all doubt one of the key moments were the moments of humanity that out there what were the things that stood out what really got me was the emotion on their faces you could see the weight of what they were about to do. the film celebrates the heroes of this historic mission. the world of cinema has always been fascinated with the moon french directors. yes imagine the moon landing in this film from 1000 to. the film was a huge success around the world it brought viewers a step closer to the heavens the earth's only satellite a place filled with mystery and unknown dangers we had dreams of adventure could

turn into nightmares. in 1929 german director fritz lang portrayed the darker side of a moon mission in this silent film it was considered one of the 1st to reasonably accurate science fiction movies. moon films had been popular since the early days of cinema and still are seen. a new film portrays the triumphs and the tragedies in the life of neil armstrong in 1962 his daughter karen died of a brain tumor when she was just 2 years old. armstrong was devastated by the loss of his daughter. the film includes a scene in which armstrong 7 years later stands in silence on the edge of the moon

crater in the film he casts a bracelet with his daughter's name on it into the crater ready. this was a man who i think was forged for failure and for loss he was not sort of for you know this kind of born icon he was not he was not necessarily the sort of all american hero from the outset he was a human being he was vulnerable we made mistakes. and later after the astronauts have returned to earth armstrong is shown at the corinth 100 facility the moon mission seems to have changed him and not for the better he's more serious and remote. many other astronauts behave the same way after their missions. ready. the 2011 us canadian film apollo 18 is a fictionalized account of a moon flight that never actually took place. apollo

18 was cancelled by nasa in 1970 but in the film the astronauts are sent to the moon our top secret mission it ends in disaster when the astronauts are attacked by extra terrestrials left alone in space far away from their home planets they are the most lonely people imagine. they'll will not only see me please. the soviet union was justifiably proud of its space program a 27000 russian film tells the story of cars went on alex a layoff the 1st man to walk in space shuttle a on of left his orbiting capsule on march 18th 1965 and spent 12 minutes floating around outside. by the time he returned to earth soviet space officials had decided that leon of was to be part of moscow's 1st lunar mission but

the project was later cancelled. was the moon landing faked a 2002 french mockumentary alleges that renowned director stanley kubrick shot the scenes at a studio acting under orders from the cia the film claims that the idea for faking the landing originally came from president nixon. they became very aware of how important the visual spectacle specter going to be had for a 3rd didn't take it very seriously about what ford motor but good words were that it kept growing our border. then one of the presidential advisors i don't know general alexander haig or donald rumsfeld. said hesitantly. why do you we feel the 1st steps on the moon in the studio and then if we fail we

can always show those pictures still public. in the film is best understood as satire as opposed to a traditional factual documentary but the production values in a way good so it needs seem convincing to some. the moon and it's never ending magic continues to fascinate and do which is all here on earth. as neil armstrong once said the moon is an interesting place to be i recommend it that was all from arts $21.00.
