Places and Forms of Power
- Apollo is the final project that should send a man on the Moon. It represents the USA’s final achievement in the space race of the 1960’s. It is supposed to show the great power of the USA as they are supposed to be the first there.
- By reading the goals of the project, we understand that Apollo is not the end of the space conquest for the USA. They intend to be the first, the best and then to use it for other « national interests » which means here that they intend to use what they have learnt to be the most powerful in space.

Space and Exchange
- Apollo is going to be the ultimate space discovery since for the first time ever, astronauts will travel in deep space and not just around the Earth. It is the real discovery of an uncharted space and the ultimate travel far from Earth. The frontier will be forever pushed to the unknown mysteries of space.
