I just heard on the UK news too. What a blow. Still, its bound to raise a little interest in the space issue.

I remember seeing him do the "one small step" bit. Im just old enough to remember it.

God's speed Neil Armstrong. Truly an American hero. He certainly was one of mine.

A courageous, modest, steely-eyed missile man. May God bless.

“This is Major Tom to Ground Control
I’m stepping through the door
And I’m floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today
For here
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there’s nothing I can do
Though I’m past one hundred thousand miles
I’m feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell my wife I love her very much she knows”
Ground Control to Major Tom
Your circuit’s dead, there’s something wrong
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you....
“Here am I floating round my tin can
Far above the Moon
Planet Earth is blue
And there’s nothing I can do.”

Neil got his pilot's license before he got his drivers. A brave hero.
