It’s been 50 years since Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin first set foot on the moon. Experience their moon landing like never before with this immersive recreation of that historic moment, created in partnership with Time Apollo50
Five decades ago, as astronauts traveled to the moon for the first time, TIME watched closely, along with the rest of the world. The magazine documented not only the moon landing but also the hopes and fears in the lead-up to the journey. This week, TIME looks back to that era and ahead to the new space race. To mark the anniversary, all readers — not just subscribers, who always have access — can get a free look inside the original issues that ran shortly before and after Apollo 11.
Lift-off was not the only thing that didn’t exactly go according to plan, though. After landing on the moon, Armstrong and Aldrin planned to check for any damage suffered in the landing. If there were any serious issues, like leaking fuel or falling pressure in their cabin, they would have to abort the mission.
