Apollo11: Lunar Landing July 20, 1969 5 min www.youtube.com |
APOLLO 11 launched from Kennedy Space Center on July 16, 1969 to make history as the first manned mission to land on the Moon. Mission Commander Neil Alden Armstrong and Lunar Module Pilot Edwin Eugene "Buz" Aldrin, Jr. stepped from the Lunar Module onto the surface of the Moon on July 20, 1969. Michael Collins, Command Module Pilot, remained in orbit around the moon in the Command Service Module.
The Space Race, with an emphasis on space exploration, between the United States and the Soviet Union was considered by President Kennedy to be a symbol of national prestige, and his goal was to reach the moon before the end of the 1960's. From a speech in May 1961:
"We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too."
John F. Kennedy

In the heart of Bay Area Houston, across the street from Johnson Space Center/NASA, the Mediterraneo Market & Cafe is a restaurant bursting with delicious mediterranean flavors and style. In this casual and comfortable atmosphere the brightly painted surroundings, regional music and friendly service combine for a pleasant dining experience, whether it is lunch or dinner. 
Choose from gyros, falafel (chickpea & fava bean patties), baba ghanoug, moussaka (eggplant, ground beef, potato) and many other meat, seafood, pasta and vegetarian entrees and combination plates. There is a brief description beside each menu item to help you decide.
Lunch is served 11am to 5pm from a varied menu featuring sandwiches, wraps, kebabs, and vegetarian and mediterranean plates. You can also order appetizers, soups, salads, and combination platters with meat, seafood, or pasta entrees. For dessert my favorite is a slice of baklava for only $1.35. 
Mediterraneo Market and Cafe also sells a nice selection of cheeses, international foods and gifts. You will find yourself lingering at the wall of autographs and the wall dedicated to the astronauts. They also serve coffee, including Greek/Turkish coffee, and other hot and cold coffee selections.
18033 Upper Bay Road, across from JSC/NASA. For catering or information: 281-333-3180
