“A” Is For Armstrong – He Nailed It!
October 6, 2006 – 21:05 pmWhen Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon, what did he say? “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” Right? Wrong! Armstrong has always contended that he actually said, “That’s one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind.” Guess what, he was right. A recent analysis of the audio file provided by NASA revealed that there was an “a” hidden in the interference of the radio transmission. Go figure – the guy who was there, was right.
It may seem like a little issue but, to the folks involved in placing the first man on the moon, it has always been a big deal.
