Happy Birthday to an American Icon! A hero to many and an inspiration to an entire nation. God Bless him!
Thanks for sharing Kathy. I remember sitting in front of our old black and white TV watching this and was just amazed. Every time we send someone in space I still think it's amazing. It saddens me that the younger generations don't comprehend how huge this moment was. It's just another moment in the past to them.
Great Audio clip, Kathy. i've never heard that entire clip with the date and the lead-in like that! Happy Birthday Neil!
Hey I head were gonna drve a car on Mars at 1:30 am Eastern in a few hours btw. Go look it up. It's a very cool thing!
Love and light,
Laura
