Their story
Neil Armstrong became the first person to walk on the Moon on 20 July 1969 as commander of Apollo 11. A naval aviator and test pilot before NASA, he spent his later years teaching and avoiding the spotlight.
In their own words
“That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”
