95th birthday of Apollo 15 astronaut James B. Irwin (1930-1991), March, 17th, 2025

On March, 17th, 2025, the famous Apollo 15 Lunar Module Pilot James B. Irwin (1930-1991) would have turned 95. I met Apollo 15 moonwalker Jim Irwin for two times (1979 and 1981) in my hometown Stuttgart in Germany. In 1979, Jim Irwin was the first astronaut where I met in my life and this meeting belongs to my most impressive meetings of my encounters with astronauts and cosmonauts. Well, I had the great pleasure to sit two seats next to Jim Irwin and before he started his lecture I intro-duced myself to him. I will never forget this beautiful evening with Apollo 15 astronaut Jim Irwin, his lecture about his spaceflight Apollo 15 and his personal witness to Jesus Christ. "Jesus walking on the earth is more important than man walking on the moon" -Apollo 15 astronaut James B. Irwin- With my movie, I would like to remember to this impressive man and astronaut, who found his true mission to bring the "Good NEWS" all over the world. Enjoy the movie! Best Helmut
