Apollo

Here is a map of the area covered by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on their Apollo 11 moon walks. It overlays onto on a soccer pitch for comparison purposes.

Here’s another version of the map, superimposed on a baseball diamond.

One might think that perhaps it doesn’t cover much area because the aircraft hangar they were filming it in is only so large.
