: http://news.nationalgeographic.com/n...moon_walk.html Do you remember where you where when Neil walked on the moon?? Busy applying to colleges. Spend much of the preceding years following all the launches and spacewalks closely, sending off to NASA for all the brochures and press releases. Living in Houston at the time will do that to you, what with all the hoopla over "Space City" and the "Astrodome" and all that............ |

BTW, I was 12 when Neil took that "small step," and I was in 1st grade when
JFK was killed and 9/11 I was sitting in front of my television watching in absolute shock. -- Chaplain (COL) Lonnie J.

I was 4 or 5 and I was dumbfounded to learn that space flight wasn't like it
was in the cartoons... I kept asking about the guns they carried, and if the had rockets to defend themselves against the bad men in outerspace. The place was my parents house at Driglington in Yorkshire, England. Not long after that we moved to America and I remember crying my eyes out that two of my best friends woudn't be joining us... My Dad's car (a Ford Anglia) and my super sized teddy bear, (the damned thing would have needed an extra seat on the plane) and the airline was BOAC.

I was in summer school at college. I watched on someone's TV, but I was so into my own little world that what was going on didn't quite click.
