On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong made history. He became the first human to set foot on the moon. People around the world watched and listened as Neil slowly climbed down the ladder of the lunar lander. He then stepped on the moon’s surface where he could look up and see Earth far above him. His words resonate today, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”
Armstrong took his picture of Buzz Aldrin who joined him on the moon. Pilot Michael Collins, who remained in orbit, was the third member of the historic Apollo 11 team.

I see several of the billboards on the drive from Phoenix to Riverside, CA. They are inspiring and I look forward to seeing them each time I make the trip. Thank you.

Neil Armstrong is a real inspiration! This story just proves that if you want something, go for it and you can get it!

Neil Armstrong is an interesting story by itself, since he has long been known for being very media shy.
It is also indicative of his character that this famous photo was of Buzz Aldrin and not him.
Truly great men usually do not to be known for themselves, but instead for their deeds.
