“ Moondust” is a piece of travel literature like no other, one could be crass & call it out of this world, but truly, this is a captivating read that will re-ignite interest in a very odd part of history. The Apollo Moon Programme has been called the last optimistic act of the twentieth century. Many say that during this short programme, it seemed as if a decade from the twenty-first century had been freakishly brought forward to the 1960s. Over a strange three-year period between 1969 & 1972, twelve men made the longest & most eccentric of all journeys & all were indelibly marked by it. In 1999, Andrew Smith was interviewing Charlie Duke, astronaut & moon walker, for the Sunday Times. During the course of the interview, which took place at Duke’s Texan home, the telephone rang & Charlie left the room to answer it. When he returned, some twenty minutes later, he seemed visibly upset. It seemed that he’d just heard that, the previous day, one of his fellow moon walkers, the astronaut Pete Conrad, had died. ‘ Now there’s only nine of us, ’ he said. Only nine. Which meant that, one day not long from now, there would be none, & when that day came, no one on earth would have known the giddy thrill of gazing back at us from the surface of the moon, where onecould blot out the world with the tip of their thumb. The thought shocked Andrew Smith, & still does. In “ Moondust”, Smith sets out to find & interview the remaining moonwalkers & their crew in order to learn how their lives, & ours, were changed by this surreal adventure forever.* With a new preface & afterword to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the first moon landing* ...
