When Twenty-Somethings Landed on the Moon

What if you discovered that one of humanity's greatest achievements-putting a man on the Moon-was accomplished by a team whose average age was just 26? In 1961, America could barely keep an astronaut airborne for fifteen minutes. Eight years later, Neil Armstrong was stepping onto the lunar surface. The real shock? This wasn't the work of seasoned scientists or brilliant prodigies. It was young people from modest backgrounds, many first-generation college students, who made the impossible routine. Their secret wasn't genius-it was a specific psychological toolkit anyone can master.
