On this day in 1969, what was one small step for man was indeed a giant leap for mankind. At 10:56 p.m. EDT, Neil Armstrong took the first steps on the moon, 240,000 miles away from his home planet. That was the very first time anyone had stepped foot on the moon. Caught on tape by a video recorder attached to the Eagle craft which carried the astronauts, Armstrong is seen stepping down from the ladder to the dusty surface of the strange new landscape. "Buzz" Aldrin joined soon after, taking photographs of the terrain and planting the U.S. flag in the
moondust.
This, of course - too is where the technology for our space blankets came from.
