Just a few small steps inside Science Central, patrons were treated Saturday to a celebration of one of mankind's most giant leaps : the Apollo 11 moon landing. 

Saturday marked the 50th anniversary of the iconic event, when astronauts Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong became the first humans to set foot on the moon. To celebrate the anniversary, Science Central hosted David Schuster, associate professor of history at Purdue University Fort Wayne, to give three 30-minute discussions on Apollo 11 and it's impact on the Cold War, as well as its legacy in science, technology, society and culture.
