RIP: Neil Armstrong

The first person to walk on the Moon died today. It’s a shame Neil didn’t live long enough to celebrate the 50th anniversary for Apollo XI but astronauts aren’t exactly “young” people due to the training involved.

I wonder if his name will be ingrained into every future Western person’s collective knowledge like Columbus, Joan of Arc or Socrates. With our growing disinterest in Science and space travel, it’s hard to say.

On a happier note, I quickly found a bit Dana Gould did about him. Neil is covered around the last third of Dana’s bit.
