Yep, would have been nasty to have one skid end up on a boulder.
Did not have a TV back then, so I missed it all. Was so estranged from society after just getting back that I was only peripherally aware something was going on.

Thanks to Dear Leader Obama ! And he totally shutdown the rest of the space program ! I know his tribute was pretty insulting to the late Neil Armstrong !
