Another national hero gone. RIP, Neil. You definitely had some large brass ones.

I remember quite well sitting around the old black and white tv watching the moon landing in 1969. Thinking about it still brings chills.
RIP Mr. Armstrong

RIP Neil......
It must have been dismaying to him to watch all these years as NASA was gutted and our horizons were so far limited from the one he had so boldly began.

RIP Mr. Armstrong
The first word ever spoken from the surface of the moon by Armstrong was, "Houston."
God Speed!
p.s. Don't mess with the old school astronauts!!

Quoting someone on another forum that I read:
"Once again Mr. Armstrong looks down upon us. This time for eternity.
"RIP Brave American."

A real American hero! Or better yet, a hero to all mankind.
