A little later, the Apollo mission was consummated and there

A little later, the Apollo mission was consummated and there were Americans on the moon. I remember distinctly looking up from the quad on what was quite a moon-flooded night, and thinking about it. They made it! The Stars and Stripes are finally flown on another orb! Also, English becomes the first and only language spoken on a neighboring rock! Who could forbear to cheer?

Was even the silvery orb to be tainted by the base, earthbound reality of imperialism?
