So what hasn't been said about July 20th, 1969?
It is the 35th anniversary of Apollo 11's historic adventure and all that can be said about a subject has been said about this. Except one thing, perhaps:
Mr. Armstrong, a fine astronaut, must've had a ton of butterflies as he extended that leg and foot onto the lunar surface. The exact quote he was supposed to use is:
"ONE SMALL STEP FOR A MAN, ONE GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND."
He forgot the "a" and although no one really noticed or cared, it does take something from the original meaning. Anyway, it was a time of energetic hopes and awed inspiration. And finally, we're going back.
