Tiny Time Machine: Exploring the Moon Landing and Stars — A Kids’ Space Adventure

Blast off with our first episode of Tiny Time Machine as we journey back to July 20, 1969—the day humans first landed on the Moon! Perfect for kids under 10 (and the parents driving them), this short, imaginative adventure puts young listeners inside the Apollo 11 lunar module, alongside Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, to experience the moment when “the Eagle has landed.”

In this kid-friendly space episode, we’ll:

• Walk on the Moon
• Collect Moon rocks and bounce lasers across space
• Discover how space science helps life on Earth
• Learn why astronauts say Earth looks like one tiny, shared spaceship
• And uncover the incredible story of Voyager’s Golden Record—a real message sent into deep space for aliens to find!

Along the way, we highlight key space milestones, the power of human imagination, and what it means to explore and care for our planet.

Whether you're teaching your kids about the Moon landing, looking for a fun space podcast for road trips, or want to introduce young listeners to STEM, history, and space exploration, this episode is a perfect, 10-minute blast of curiosity and awe.
