Wonderful! Just re-watched "The Right Stuff" today and wanted more; this beautifully crafted tribute provided it. Thanks NASA. And thank you Neil Armstrong.
This was a great tribute to an American hero and a wonderful human being. May his accomplishments and achievements inspire many generations to come! Thank you NASA for pushing the boundaries for exploration.

RIP Neil Alden Armstrong. You were an inspiration to many, a true American hero and an extremely considerate person. You will always be my hero and you will never be forgotten. May you forever be with God. *Salutes* Rest In Peace Neil, Rest In Peace. - Heather Norwood, Sunday 5th July 2015, 10PM.
One of my favorite stories about Neil Armstrong was when one day, Neil was testing out a LEM (Lunar Excursion Module) prototype called the LLRV (Lunar Landing Research Vehicle), the thing exploded and fell to the ground and burst into glames. Luckily though, Neil ejected just in time. Later, either Edwin 'Buzz' Aldrin or Jim Lovell heard the news and went go find Neil, who was sitting in an office filling out paperwork. Aldrin (or Lovell) goes to Neil and says "You almost died! For heavens and you're just sitting here casually!" And there's Neil, sitting down at his desk doing paperwork and just nods it off and says "There's paper work to fill out" What a badass!
+jackie nistor greetings from Greece sir !! Neil is a legent !! of course man went to the moon !!! only idiots dont believe in this...AMERICA : THE LAND OF THE FREE THE HOME OF THE BRAVE !!!
I cannot believe that all these people in this video are lying. Most of them are old tho lol. Landing on the moon was a big fake. It has been proved so. God sake!,!,!!,! Why some people would lie at this age '!!!
R.I.P Neil Armstrong.Moon landings were fake, Sadly we did not have the technology in the late 1960's and early 1970's to get a man on the moon and bring him back...But I understand why this was done, It was done to say to USSR "Look what we can do don't mess with us" one day the truth WILL out, Maybe one day we may have the technology to go to the moon and back. R.I.P Neil Armstrong 1930-2012
there are mirrors on the moon that were deployed by apollos 15 team i guess that if you have laser and point it there and have a receptor to receive the reflected rays of light you will know how far is the moon ,if they placed those mirrors there and everyone go to a public telescope that makes these numbers they"astronomers" will be glad to show you they make these measurements almost all days of the year.i once went to one it was so amazing to see them firing lasers ant the moon. sorry for my bad english.
What he did was probably the greatest push into the future. Do I consider it man's greatest achievement? No, I reserve the Voyager Mission for that, but this is certainly in the absolute highest of human achievement. It's certainly the greatest thing humans with their own flesh and bone have done.
Kinda sad that we lost him. I still think they should erect a statue of him since he was the 1st man to walk on the moon. He is a modern day Columbus of you think about it. And I know the landing was not hoaxed. After all we have proof that it wasn't.
I could give an hour of proofing that they went to the moon, but I am getting tired of that. Neil Armstrong was an icon, down to earth (and the moon) humble, and a living inspiration.
I adore the fact that, for the rest of its existence, the moon will have a set of footprints on it belonging to that wonderful, wonderful man and his team. No ceremony, monument or statue can be greater then those simple prints in the unmoving dirt. Its really quite an extraordinary way to remember a person, but it'll last a lot, lot longer then other monuments to people.
I just don't understand why Neil didn't accept any credit for what he did. I mean the guy wouldn't share with the world his great experience to be the first man to walk on the moon . No interviews , no autographs he declined alot credit . I don't get it . But he his an American Icon.
best evidence i know that he did go to the moon was the fact the Russians never disputed it. The Moon Landings and race were a propaganda weapon against Soviet Russia. The Russians also had the only instruments capable of verifying or denying the mission and yet they never showed the slightest level of skepticism or doubt over but rather did the very embarrassing thing in congratulate Nasa
GLORIA ETERNA A NEIL ARMSTRONG, EL DIO ORGULLO A TODA LA HUMANIDAD, FUE UN GRAN HOMBRE, QUE DESCANSÉ EN PAZ Y QUE DESDE EL MÁS ALLÁ NOS VEA. CUANDO MIREN A LA LUNA PIENSEN EN NEIL Y DENLE UN GUIÑO. DESDE LIMA, PERÚ.
Even though Neil is gone his memory and spirit will live on forever on the moon and in the universe. He's the eternal astronaut. God bless you Neil Armstrong
Neil is greatest is super hero of 20th century, he risked his life for greatest cause to help humanity, he is so brave, he may rest in heaven, he always be remembered as noble and inspiring man
Neil Armstrong was a man of honor and courage. Neil is the greatest man that had and ever will in history. Every night when I see the moon, I look at it for a moment, and make a salute while saying ''Rest In Peace, My Hero'' . These days not a lot of people remember this great man.I my self have Neil Armstrong's Biography from James R. Hansen .
I have always looked upon Mr. Armstrong as a true "American Hero" the epitome of greatness. Humble, reserved, quiet. The world will long remember Neil Armstrong, not the for greatness he showed albeit for the greatness he was. I still, in awe, look up at the Moon in the evening hours, and can recall vividly those ghostlike television images of a "man" setting foot upon another heavenly body, for the first time. Rest In Peace, Neil Armstrong!
What went wrong is the priorities for TV. Somehow TV execs go by the lowest common denominator. Not the importance, or actual interest of the subject matter, but what the dumbest of the dumb want to see. Fox News, any US channel really goes by that rule. So any actually interesting and important stuff is not in the books for TV. I wonder how they'll cover New Horizons historic flyby of Pluto in 2015. Probably resurrect the manufactured "not a planet" controversy.
You've still got a chance to be up there. Engineering, biology, physics, geology, any route you want to take, you still got a chance to get up there. The hoax here is that you can't get up to the stars. People want you to know you can't go beyond this small planet, because they don't want you to realize how fragile and small a place this world is. How we're all just a small world in a huge universe. If you take the opposite road, you'll end up wishing you had dared to dream.
It was my dream to shake the hand of the first person to set foot on something other than eart. Neil is not just an american hero but a hero of mankind and he with foreer be missed
They had crap on TV in 1969, obviously less overall since there was just less programming, but it's not like the moonwalk was the only programming in 1969. But whatever, this is irrelevant to this video. We should be talking about how awesome Neil Armstrong was.
Quiet, humble, sincere - everything modern 'heroes' like celebrities are not. Thank you to Neil, the other Apollo astronauts and everybody who ever worked on Mercury, Gemini and Apollo for giving us the inspiration and knowledge of what a sense of adventure can drive us to achieve. Godspeed Neil.
Neil the boy scouts will miss you you were a very nice man and i hope god has a place for you up there rest in peace and from all the eagle scouts we say thankyou
rest in space i would of loved to meet you and still wish i could when i watched this i thought to my self you are the most best person in the world to me and your my hero and i would love to meet you up in the clouds one day rest in space
Sorry I spelt something wrong on my first comment on this video------------------------------- Neil Armstrong is a wonderful man and still is I wish I could meet him in real life but I can see his bike etc in a museum ( Sorry if I spelt it wrong ) RIP Neil Armstrong Neil A. Quote: One small step for a man....One giant leap for mankind We will NEVER forget Neil Armstrong
Rest In Peace Good Sir. Hey does NASA or whoever made this video sell the Secrets Piano piece playing at 3:02? I would love to buy this version of the song.
Great Video. You know, I paused the day he died. And I wept for a Real Life Hero of mine. And I found on EBay a "1960's Marx Johnny Apollo". Never owned one. But I wanted something to remember the Apollo Missions. Somehow I won that Auction and plan to out that plastic figure by my computer to remind me the impossible was achieved. All because we dreamed and dared to believe. Neil Armstrong was truly one of the Greatest Americans ever. Humble and at the same time Daring.
An amazing man who did such a great job representing the organization that worked their butts off to achieve the un-achievable. Such humbleness is a character trait so rarely found today. RIP Mr. Armstrong you will never be forgotten in our journey through the stars. On another note, does anyone know the song at 3:03?
