A True American Hero
ad
Just found out Neil Armstong died at 82. For you younger folks he was the first man to walk on the moon. AND YES (despite you people that thinks it was faked it really hapened.) Think about the balls it took these men to rely on nothing but mathematical equations and pure luck to do what they did. One fraction of an inch off and they would drift endlessly into space. Neil Armstrong is the very definition of a hero, putting the good of his community ahead of his own life. His quote as he stepped on the moon will be eternal"one small step for me one giant step for mankind". As the President said back then before they lifted off for the heavens,and I'll say it again "I wish you gods speed" Goodbye to a true American Hero

Yea the guy was a great man and will live on in history as 1 of the first guys to start the space race just a shame he had to cope with the bullshit people said about it bein fake my art teacher usta tell the whole class it was fake usta piss me off so much i am a bit space nerd lol and have been keeping check on the mars landing and have seen the moon landing loads of times on the sky at night and watched his interviews.i think what steveb is trying to say is someone could of been up first b4 him off the record and i would not put it past the usa or any over country for the matta i dnt think he was saying it was fake or trying to take away the great accomplishment he acheived just could of been someone up first but who realy knows just dnt think we know everything or even half of what is going on up there cz we dnt never the less this man is a real hero and a legend its a great loss rip.

boom! well said, bubba...
StevebFirst man to allegedly walk on the moon
Brother the hubble telescope along with the most recent mars probe shows pictures of the lunar landing capsule and the American flag still standing. Do you think NASA will go out of it's way to fake something almost 50 years later? Do not take away from this mans accomplishments over pure nonsense with no factual basis. You insult me and the life this man lead with your ignorant comment. If I could down vote you I would.
CleyonAmen! Sad to hear that he's passed, but could you ever wish to live a more amazing life?
You reached the heavens only a few chosen have ever done that. The stories he could tell. I just wish I could have heard them. He was a hero of mine since childhood,and I am very sad to hear of his passing.
CleyonI grew up idolizing him and Chuck Yeager, what can I say my Dad flew F4s through my earliest childhood. The Right Stuff is right, these guys were amazing.
sgtstedankoboom! the right stuff ;)
CleyonAnyone who has that crappy 80's song in their head now must go jump out a window... OK, see you guyyyyyyyyyyyssssssss
