Tranquility Base, the site of the first Apollo moon landing, is one of the greatest of all historic sites — and now you can bring it down to Earth to watch history unfold in front of you.
Moonwalking is an augmented-reality app that recreates Tranquility Base in your backyard or neighborhood park. With your iPhone or iPad
serving as a magic window into history, watch as the Lunar Module "Eagle" lands, Neil Armstrong makes his famous "one small step," and Buzz
Aldrin joins him for history's first moonwalk. All this is happening right in front of you — all around you — in an immersive virtual world.
MoonWalking demonstrates our augmented reality technology for historic sites, but it's designed so you can experience it wherever you are.
MoonWalking requires an iPhone 4 or 4S, or an iPad 2+ 3G.
Immersive augmented reality lets you explore the virtual world by walking around the real world.
