Moon day

There are two holidays that are sometimes referred to as "Moon Day":

• National Moon Day is celebrated on July 20th every year to commemorate the first moon landing by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on July 20, 1969.
• International Moon Day is celebrated on July 20th every year to commemorate the first moon landing and to promote the peaceful exploration of space.

International Moon Day was officially declared by the United Nations General Assembly in 2021. The day is intended to raise awareness of the importance of the moon and to promote the peaceful exploration of space.

National Moon Day is not an official holiday, but it is celebrated by many people around the world. On this day, people often watch documentaries about the moon landing, read books about space exploration, or attend events that celebrate the moon.

Both National Moon Day and International Moon Day are a time to reflect on the amazing achievements of the Apollo 11 mission and to look forward to the future of space exploration.
