On Christmas Eve 1968, the crew of Apollo 8 - Bill Anders, Jim Lovell, and Frank Borman - read from the Book of Genesis as they orbited the moon. It was a surprise to those in Mission Control, who found it intensely moving. Here is the original TV broadcast, with the cratered surface of the Moon turning underneath the spacecraft. Turn the sound on to hear the broadcast! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL ON THE GOOD EARTH! | Mission Control
