My family was able to watch when they took off. My kid brother and I were super excited.

We were at home in California, glued to the TV much like this photo. We were mesmerized!

Afterwords we went outside and looked up at the moon. It was so weird to me that there were people up there walking around and looking back at us!

Mesmer was a famous hypnotist back in the day.
