Initially, They Were Going to the Moon Using Big Ladders
In a way, I guess that they did use ladders to go to the Moon. Not to actually get there, sure, but to solve the equations that made every part of the trip possible. In this case, the landings. More » -

You'd be forgiven for thinking this is digital age command center, where generals direct scores of experimental drones by fingertip, holo-conference with the President and shield the world from terrifying threats unseen. In reality, it's probably older than you are. More » -

Moon Dust-DNA Watch Made From Actual Moon Dust and Parts From Apollo 11
Romain Jerome's Titanic DNA Watch was such a success that the company has decided to take the concept to the moon (literally) with their new Moon Dust DNA watch. Like the Titanic version, the moon watch will feature actual artifacts. The face includes dust from a rock retrieved during our first mission to the moon, the case is made from steel from the Apollo 11 spacecraft and the strap will be made up of fibers from a spacesuit worn during the ISS mission. Okay, that...is...awesome. But now for the sticker shock—a symbolic quantity of 1969 watches will be made to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission. Several different versions will be available at prices that range from $15,000 to $500,000 apiece. [Romain Jerome via The Age via Born Rich]
