The correct answer is The Team Moon excerpt is more emotional and dramatic than the NASA excerpt.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two excerpts presented focuses on providing information about the lunar module landing. Moreover, both excerpts provide details about the emotions related to this event, for example in "Let the cheering begin!" (first excerpt) or in "Mission control erupts in celebration" (second excerpt). However, the first excerpt (Team Moon) emphasizes the emotions and has a dramatic effect because the author of this text has used emotional language such as "panic-stricken, gut-wrenching, heart-palpitating" that show all the strong emotions experienced by those who were part of the project or "Their baby was on the moon" that show the gratification of the team.
