Hey there. Im Neil Armstrong.These are my buddies Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins.Were descending at 17,500 miles per hour, temperatures of 3000 degrees surround this tiny metal capsule and to my rear is the terrifying vacuum of space.So, why are we up here?Well, there are two real powerful countries on Earth doing all they can to look better than the other.The Soviet Union put the first person into space, so President Kennedy of the United States of America set a challenge. We will go to the Moon! Not because it is easy but because it is hard.A trip to the Moon means flying, and boy was I good at flying.So the US government asked if I wanted to become an astronaut.After seven years the guys on NASAs Apollo mission were ready to shoot me to the Moon.The force of take off was intense.But when we made it out into space we became weightless.Now there was nothing holding us back.After four days travelling, we were close.Michael stayed in orbit while Buzz and I approached the Moon in our lander, Eagle.Our computer was leading us into a crater full of rocks.I quickly took control.With just 30 seconds until we ran out of fuel, I found a smooth landing site... touch down.Thats one small step for man. One giant leap for mankind.It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth.Boy, is it worth taking care of.This is mission control, we have you on our screen.Welcome home Apollo 11. Hope you brought us a present.Err... We got Moon rocks!In 1969 U.S. astronaut Neil Armstrong became the first person to walk on the moon. Millions of people watched on television as Armstrong stepped out of his spacecraft and said, Thats one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.Neil Alden Armstrong was born on August 5, 1930, in Wapakoneta, Ohio. He became interested in airplanes at a young age. After high school Armstrong became an air cadet, or trainee, in the U.S. Navy. He also studied flight engineering at two universities. In the early 1950s Armstrong was a pilot in the Korean War.In 1955 Armstrong joined the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) as a test pilot. Seven years later NASA chose Armstrong to be an astronaut. He led the flight of the spacecraft Gemini 8, launched on March 16, 1966. During that flight Armstrong became the first person to connect his spacecraft to a rocket in space.On July 16, 1969, Armstrong, Edwin E. (Buzz) Aldrin, Jr., and Michael Collins left for the moon in the Apollo 11 spacecraft. Four days later, Armstrong became the first person to step out onto the moons surface. For more than two hours Armstrong and Aldrin collected samples of moon soil, made measurements, and took photographs before they began their return trip to Earth.Armstrong retired from NASA in 1971. He continued to teach and to work on committees about the space program. He died on August 25, 2012, in Cincinnati, Ohio. Not ready to purchase a subscription?

Neil Armstrong was born on August 5, 1930 just outside of Wapakoneta, Ohio. Armstrong was interested in flight from a very early age. When he was just two years old his dad took him to the Cleveland Air Races and he took his first airplane flight in a Ford Trimotor (also known as The Tin Goose) with his father in Warren, Ohio on July 20, 1936 when he was five. Neil Armstrong could fly a plane before he could drive a car! He got his student flight certificate on his 16th birthday and then did his first solo flight later that month. All of this before he even had a drivers license. At 17, Neil Armstrong studied aeronautical engineering at Purdue University as part of a scholarship by the US Navy. He was also accepted to MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) but another engineer who had been to MIT told him he didnt need to go there for a good education. While at Purdue, Armstrong was called up to fight in the Korean War for the US Navy as a pilot. He flew 78 missions over Korea for a total of 121 hours in the air – most of which were in January of 1952. Neil Armstrong received the Air Medal for 20 combat missions, a Gold Star for the next 20 missions, and the Korean Service Medal and Engagement Star for his heroics in the war. After his service with the Navy, Armstrong returned to Purdue University to complete his studies and got better grades after the war than he did before. He finished with a GPA of 4.8 out of 6.0. In 1955 he joined the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) which would later become the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). He was an engineer at NACA and was also a test pilot for experimental aircraft and modified bombers – like the X-15 rocket plane which he flew 7 times to maximum altitude of 207,500 feet. In 1962, he was asked whether he would be interested in joining the NASA Astronaut Corps. Without hesitation, Armstrong responded Yes!. He moved to Houston, Texas to join the astronaut program. Neil Armstrong was the Command Pilot for the Gemini 8 mission on March 16, 1966, along with fellow astronaut David Scott as Pilot. During this mission, they managed to dock two vehicles in space, which had never been done before. The mission was cut short though because of technical difficulties. Armstrong was also a backup Command Pilot for the Gemini 11 mission. He had a lot of knowledge about the systems used on the mission and took on a teaching role for Gemini 11. On July 16, 1969 that Neil Armstrong, along with fellow astronauts Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins, launched the Apollo 11 manned mission to the Moon. July 20, 1969 is one of the most memorable days in human history, as Neil Armstrong piloted Buzz Aldrin to the Moons surface in the Lunar Module. They spent over two hours collecting rock samples, taking photographs and exploring the surface of the Moon. Apollo 11 returned to Earth on July 24, 1969. As Neil Armstrong placed his left boot onto the surface of the moon at 2:56 UTC July 21, 1969, he spoke the now famous words: Thats one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind. After his return to Earth, Armstrong became an instant celebrity. He was never comfortable with the media attention though and rarely gave interviews on the mission. He worked with NASA until the 70s when he retired to become a professor of aerospace engineering at the University of Cincinnati. Neil Armstrong died in Cincinnati, Ohio, on August 25, 2012, after complications from heart surgery. He was 82 when he died.
