Wish any boy or girl a Happy 9th Birthday with a card featuring three adorable raccoon astronauts who have just landed on the moon. Rocky is announcing their arrival, Sugar Bear is complaining that he has to pee and Bullwinkle is noticing one of the aliens who is holding a Welcome Earthlings sign with an American flag off to his side apparently left there by previous astronauts. Some elements by La Galerie de Jackie, Scrappin Doodles, J. Rett Graphics. The word "astronaut" comes from the Greek words "astron nautes", which means "star sailor." It is estimated that 600 million people watched Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walk on the Moon on television. The First Man in space was Russian Yuri Gagarin. The first Woman in space was Russian Valentina Tereshkova. The First Man to set foot on the moon was American Neil Armstrong.
