re: #110 dangerman

Newton ,Einstein ,the early rocket scientists yeah they had nothing to do with it
And Every single part from every single mission was American made?

People forget how the whole world was watching. It represented the whole world.

It was watched by so many, law enforcement people found it one of the most peaceful nights they ever had. Everyone was listening on radio or watching on TV.

And one thing I read some time ago, is Armstrong and Aldrin didn’t want to say anything about “America/USA” when they planted the flag because they didn’t want it to come off similar to the Europeans planting a flag in the Americas and declaring it part of Spain, France or whoever. They didn’t want to claim a conquest “in the name of the United States.”
