Today is the anniversary of the Moon Landing. If you were alive on July 20, 1969, you were watching television.
Personally, though alive, this writer does not recall it (I had just turned three, and my sister was only seven months old). However, like millions of parents, mine sat us in front of the black and white television at 1:OO PM California time. We watched as Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon 17 minutes later. It was a defining moment in history and science, capping a decade of tremendous upheaval.
The event occurred six hours after landing at 4:17 PM EDT (with less than 30 seconds of fuel remaining). Neil A. Armstrong stepped off the Lunar Module onto the moon's surface, exclaiming: "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."
Buzz Aldrin joined him, and the two astronauts spent 21 hours on the lunar surface, returning with 46 pounds of lunar rocks.
