The greatest moment of time during the presidency of Nixon was the Apollo 11 lunar landing. Neil Armstrong the first man to ever take a step on moon said these words as he took the first steps, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” In all four of the Apollo 11 sources each one appeals to a literary device, ethos, pathos and logos.
“And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you -- ask what you can do for your country.” John F. Kennedy said this famous quote in his inauguration speech on January 20, 1961. In his speech and during his campaign he ensured the country that he would do great things. His youthfulness brought hope to the country for a new age. It created confidence in his leadership and direction for our country. With this support behind him, he came into the presidency ready to make our country thrive. In fact, many of the domestic policies he instilled did just this and if he had more time to gain knowledge on the Presidency, he could have made his foreign policies into great ones.

The 1960’s were a period of social turmoil. The cold war had been brewing and was a contest of nationalistic interests between the US and Soviet Union to compete for militaristic, economic, social, and technological might. As the cold war culminated and became increasingly competitive, the United States and Soviets competed in the phenomenon called the Space Race, a competition between the two countries for supremacy in the frontier that is space. Although the Soviets reached space itself before the Americans, The United States took the advantage by landing the first people on the moon using the Apollo 11 spacecraft. The Apollo 11 moon landing influenced American nationalism in the late 1960s and early 70s by inciting a positive public reaction
An obstacle he faced is that when he was eleven years old he dropped out of school to make money. To overcome this, he started singing a quartet of boys in the streets. According to Wikipedia.org, it states, “After dropping out of Fisk school at age eleven, Armstrong joined a quartet of boys who sang in the streets for money.” Another obstacle Armstrong faced was that he was so poor that he had to take care of his family. To overcome this, he began to work for a Jewish family, the Karnoskys. They treated him like their own son. In addition, they inspired him to pursue a music career. According to biography.com, it states, “Armstrong had a difficult childhood…Armstrong was obligated to leave school in the fifth grade to begin working. A Jewish family, The Karnofskys, gave young Armstrong a job collecting junk. They also encouraged his to sing and dance.” Louis Armstrong would be considered a leader. Armstrong is a model for jazz musicians today. He has made so many contribution to jazz music, inspired many artist and improved jazz. According to Wikipedia.org, it states,” Through his playing, the trumpet emerged as a solo instrument in jazz music and is widely used today. With his innovations, he raised the bar musically.” Lastly, Armstrong has contributed to society. He helped solidify jazz as a serious genre and introduce it the mainstream. Armstrong showed the world that jazz was a legitimate form of music.
Rhetoric writing, the art of persuasion, is a profound form that Greek philosopher, Aristotle, created. He created the three appeals, ethos, logos, and pathos which influence the tone, purpose, and context of the writing piece. The four pieces of writing, that I drew connections between, are all written differently but possess the same effective way of communicating with honesty and share the subtle goal of manipulation.
Conspiracy theories have become a real complication and are used to find out if something that was planned is actually true or a hoax. Some examples of these are the existence of bigfoot, mass shootings set forth by political parties, and the events that took place on September 11, 2001. Many of these conspiracy theories have multiple sides and viewpoints for people to gather and form ideas of what they think happened.One of the most debated conspiracy theories was the moon landing. On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin stepped off the Apollo 11 landing craft onto the foreign landscape of the moon and said these words,’That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” They had set out to be the first men to step foot on the moon and help the United States win the so called “Space Race.”After gathering evidence with moon rocks and specimens, the astronauts place the american flag and a plaque in the
In the movie I Robot they're in a future where robots help with everything in day to day life. But one police officer (Will Smith) doesn't trust the robots and thinks they've become too untrustworthy. He soon finds himself to be right. They took over society and started killing humans. But back in the 1960's that thought didn't even cross people's minds. In the 60's technology was affected by The Space race.
Have you ever wondered about whether or not America’s moon landings were real? I don’t think you have, but there are millions of other Americans who have thought this and are really trying to prove that America’s moon landings were all a scam! Of, course, there are opposers to this claim, because there are always opposers to every claim. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a claim that everybody agrees with. There’s always someone who thinks they saw something or infers this or that or the other. But I need to get to the point because today we are going to, obviously, going to be talking about whether the American moon landings were real. I’ve got a stack of evidence just waiting to be talked about so let’s get started!
In 1969, all of America watched as NASA sent the first manned ship into space and to the moon. Hundreds of people gathered around the launch station and thousands watched the live broadcasting on the news. As the countdown reached 0, the rocket with Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldron and Tim Collins flew to space and America gave a sigh of relief. Now it was time to watch as Neil Armstrong took the first steps on the moon to plant the American flag on the moon symbolizing our victory in the notorious “Space Race” with the Soviet Union. It was a great day for America as we won the “Space Race” and got safely to the moon, but not everyone was happy. In this essay, I will be talking about why some conspiracy theorists think that the historical moon landing of 1969 was staged and why I still believe that it was in fact, real.
On July 20, 1969, astronaut Neil Armstrong walked on the moon: or perhaps not. That is what some people think. They believe the "Moon Landings" were faked, in order to cheat the public out of billions of dollars and so that we could win the space race against the Soviet Union. According to conspiracy theorists, the scientists at N.A.S.A. realized during the Apollo missions that either is was technically impossible to reach the Moon ir that it cost too much. So, the government built a secret movie studio somewhere in the southwest and used special effects to pretend that the astronauts had landed on the Moon. Then, the "historic event" was sent through television to the entire world who, for the most part, believed it.
When Neil Armstrong first touched down on the moon in 1969, millions of people watched him take the first step and create history (Villard). Yet even as we’ve moved on from the moon landings and consider them as a pivotal point for mankind, “Forty years after U.S. astronaut Neil Armstrong became the first human to set foot on the moon, many conspiracy theorists still insist the Apollo 11 moon landing was an elaborate hoax”(Than). The idea that our voyage to the moon was deliberately staged seems to resurface year after year. While the conspiracy theorists claim the moon landing was a hoax, creating a fake moon landing would have been more expensive and difficult than actually reaching the moon.
