Apollo 11 approaching the Moon

The Moon is a permanent natural satellite of the Earth and the fifth largest satellite in the Solar System.[1]

History[edit | edit source]

Sometime between 75,010 and 75,000 BCE, the Capitoline Triad sought a solution to the incoming solar flare that would strike and scorch the Earth. One of their earliest possible solutions came into being when they discovered that once enough humans sat in thrall of the Pieces of Eden, their thoughts became a reality. With this discovery at hand, the trio sent an Apple of Eden into space to enthrall the Earth so that they could wish the sun's threat away, but the Apple's beam was out of place. The trio ultimately sent a dozen Apples into the sky, but they all propelled off their course.[2] One of these Apples crashed on the Moon and remained there for several millennia.[3]

In the 1960s, the Templars sought to recover the Apple from the Moon, and manipulated NASA into initiating the Apollo program. On 20 July 1969, the Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin made history as the first humans to walk on the Moon, though their spacewalk was actually to retrieve the Apple from the Moon's surface.[3]

In 2012, the Assassin Clay Kaczmarek collected details on the Moon landing while Abstergo Industries held him captive at their Animus Project laboratory in Rome. He then hid the information within the Animus 1.28 in Glyph puzzles for his successor, Desmond Miles, to find.[3] Sometime in early September,[4] Desmond solved the puzzle set appropriately titled "Apollo", which revealed the true nature of the spaceflight and ultimately the Space Race.[3]

Cultural significance[edit | edit source]

The Moon has featured in multiple mythologies throughout the world. Ancient Greeks revered the Moon via the goddess Artemis, and considered the crescent moon to be the symbol of Nyx, the goddess of night and darkness.[5] The Romans revered the Moon via the goddess Diana.[3] Ancient Egyptians worshipped the Moon via the deities Khonsu and Thoth. They also saw the crescent moon in the ibis bird's bill.[6] Furthermore, the Egyptians believed that while the Sun was the right eye of the god Horus, the Moon was his left.[7] Among the Iroquois, the Moon was believed to be one of the mythical Sky Woman's eyes, with her other eye being the Sun.[8]
