Happy Moon Day!
It's Moon Day, the day humanity first set foot on another celestial body. Neil Armstrong stepped off the pad of the lunar lander and said those historic words, " This is one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."
Watching the event live on TV back in 1969 was thrilling. I still get chills seeing the restored and enhanced footage today.
