This is nothing but bullcrap. America isn’t going to send astronauts, or even anymore spacecraft to Mars anytime soon. Muslim outreach is NASA’s new mission.

But were Neil Armstrong’s famous words “One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind” really his own, or were they planned ahead of time?

His actual first words upon lunar touch down, immediately after engine shut off were, "I hope this GD thing starts back up".

I don't know who came up with that mankind thing.

When American astronauts make the next "giant leap" by launching to Mars,

We're too broke, so it won't be Americans taking the first steps on Mars.

Not in this fiscal lifetime anyway.
