The performance is based on the real transcript of Apollo 11’s communications with the NASA Control Center in Houston. One of humanity’s greatest adventures began in July 1969, when the rocket Saturn V was launched into space, bringing Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins and Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin into the Earth’s orbit. On the same day in 2000, a supposed Mars landing was announced. Still, today, in 2019, it appears that we know much less about the universe than we thought. Moonlight Sonata No. 11 is dedicated to anyone who ever wanted to become an astronaut.
