By Space and Aliens

How the Apollo 11 team decided who walks on the moonOn hearing of Neil Armstrong’s death, I decided to delve a little bit into the life of the first man to walk the moon. I was excited to discover he was an engineer. Shying from the lime light, in a rare interview in 2000 he described himself as

‘I am, and ever will be, a white-socks, pocket-protector, nerdy engineer.’  

RIP 5 August 1930 – 25 August 2012
