The first man on the moon, Neil Armstron died at 82 years of age.
I still remember sitting as a little girl watching his steps from the Eagle.
Rest in peace, Neil _________________

Sad news, I have just heard. He will never be forgotten and everyone will remember his legendary words,"That's one small step for a man, one gigant leap for mankind."

The moon landing I haven't witnessed live because I was not born yet. It must have been fascinating to have seen it live. Through the spectacular televison recordings my interest in astronomy was awakend. _________________

I was 18 at the time and remember exactly where I was when they landed on the moon - in the television section at my local KMART store along with about 50 other shoppers. I wish I was at home though watching it with my dad. He was an H G Wells and Jules Verne fan and always believed men would go to the moon. _________________

Well, I was 10 years old and my parent stayed in bed asleep. I set the alarm on my clock and went down on my own.
My mother and my father never understand, why I did that but it's a very special memory and for me it's a extreme value. _________________
