A day that I will never forget as long as I live. A Moonday Motivator on the fortieth anniversary of the first man on the moon!

From the earth to the moon by Richard WeisserForty years ago today, an amazing feat occurred. Nearly everyone that had access to a television was glued to the set as astronaut Neil Armstrong stepped off the strut of the lunar module on to the surface of the moon.

It didn't matter that he misspoke his historic quote, which should have been "that's one small step for A man, one giant leap for mankind" by leaving out the article. The event was of such a momentous proportion that the minor slip was ignored.

The late Walter Cronkite was moved to tears as President Kennedy's dream was fulfilled. The "Space Race" was over, and the United States had won.

It is impossible to convey the lintense level of emotion surrounding this event. Everyone who was alive at the time remembers exactly where they were and who they were with as the single most significant scientific achievement of all time was sucessfully accomplished.

It was indeed a giant leap for mankind that I will never forget!

This is a short NASA video commemorating the event!
