OUR LATEST BOOK RELEASED TO MARK THE 50th ANNIVERSARY OF THE VERY FIRST MOON LANDING
​
Nominated for The Kate Greenaway medal in 2020,
Where Once We Stood captures the first-hand accounts of an extraordinary chapter in our history, when twelve human beings set foot upon the Moon. Combining a unique series of illustrations with the words spoken by the astronauts on the lunar surface, this book offers a rare insight into what it really felt like to live and work on another world; something that those who’d experienced it often found hard to convey.
​
Artist Martin Impey has joined forces with writer and Apollo historian Christopher Riley to bring a new dimension to the timeless story of Humankind's extraordinary adventures on the Moon.
​
From the first footprints left by Neil and Buzz during their pioneering walk on the Sea of Tranquillity, to the final ambitious expeditions - as astronauts drove an electric car deep into the mountains of the Moon, this is a revealing record of what it truly meant to explorer a place beyond Earth - where once we stood.
