Armstrong, the first astronaut to land on the moon.
Neil Alden Armstrong was born on August 5, 1930, in Wapakoneta, Ohio. In 1955, he received a Master of Science degree in Aeronautical Engineering from the University of Perdue University. 1949 1952 Served in the US Navy (flight pilot).
In 1955, he joined the Lewis Flight Propulsion Laboratory of the National Aeronautical Technical Advisory Council (later the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) and later served as a test pilot at the Commission's Edwards High-Speed Flight Station in California. From 1962 to 1970, he was an astronaut at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston. In March 1966, he was the special pilot of the Gemini 8 spacecraft.

On July 16, 1969, he flew to the moon aboard the Apollo 11 spacecraft with Aldrin and Collins (of whom he served as commander). On July 20, Armstrong piloted the Flying Eagle lunar module to land on the lunar surface, and at 10 p.m. on the same day, he and Aldrin stepped out of the lunar module and stepped onto the lunar surface. Armstrong was the first to set foot on the desolate and silent land of the moon, becoming the first man to land on the moon and walk on it.

In the same year, he was awarded the Order of Freedom.
From 1970 to 1971, he served as Deputy Director of the Office of Advanced Research and Technology at the headquarters of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration in Washington, D.C. After retiring from NASA in 1971, he served as a professor of aeronautical engineering at the University of Cincinnati until 1979. Member of the National Committee on Space Problems in March 1985.
In February 1986, he was appointed Vice-Chairman of the ** Committee to Investigate the Space Shuttle Accident. Since the 80s, he has also served as a director or chairman of several companies.
On July 20, 1999, the United States held a ceremony at the Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C., to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the first human landing on the moon. Vice President Gore ceremoniously awarded the Langley Gold Medal to American astronaut Neil Armstrong and his companion Edwin Aldrin for the first time on the moon, as well as Michael Collins in the command module.

Anthropoids Scientists Discover Earliest Human Ancestors A French team found fossilized bones and teeth of ancient humans in Kenya last year, and after research, scientists found that these may be the earliest ancestral remains ever discovered. Researchers have shown the fossils to the world, pointing out that they are older than Lucy, an ancient human fossil found earlier, and that they may be more than twice as old as Lucy. This discovery will add more topics to the already fierce debate over the origins of mankind. >>>More
