This rare footage shows the Apollo 11 Lunar Module lifting off from the Moon, captured on 16mm film from the Command Module orbiting above. It records the exact moment astronauts left the lunar surface to reunite in orbit, completing humanity’s first landing on another world. The ascent stage carried Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin away from the Moon, leaving the descent stage behind as a silent marker of exploration.

Real Apollo 11 footage: the Lunar Module Eagle lifts off from the Moon and climbs to dock with the Command Module Columbia—the most underrated “escape” in space history. 🧑‍🚀 The descent stage stays behind, and the ascent stage carries Armstrong and Aldrin back to Michael Collins in lunar orbit—because getting off the Moon was just as risky as landing. 🌕 Watch closely: a tiny blinking craft, a black sky, and one docking that decided whether Apollo 11 was a triumph… or a tragedy. 🚀 #Apollo11 #
