When Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin took humanity’s first steps on the moon in 1969, I was a teenager in Hawaii, watching the dawning of a new era of space exploration in grainy black-and-white live television. Today we celebrate the life of a real American pioneer: Astronaut Neil Armstrong, First Man to Walk on Moon, Dies at Age 82.

From Neil Armstrong’s family: the next time you walk out on a clear night and see the moon smiling, think of Neil and give him a wink.
