It was great to see those first steps on the moon and even better to relive those moments in the recent interviews and feel the mans emotions.
One who will be sadly missed by many.

Farewell to a great man who showed a world in turmoil that anything can be achieved with just one small step.

The world has lost one of the last great heroes, may he rest in peace

A well earned rest for one of the (my) true super heroes of our time.

Looking up at the Moon today make me think of the momentous times we lived through.

R.I.P Neil Armstrong.

We need people like Neil Armstrong more than ever in our apathetic times. We, as a society, need to be inspired to explore and discover.

That Saturday night I was with my friend Peter sketching the Moon. I dedicated the sketch I did that night to Neil. I guess its now my little link to the great man.

RIP First Man

Certainly a sad day as I watched that night the walk on the moon. There will only be 1 First Man. However there are many gods around. A humble man who always considered aeronautical engineering his first love.

As a footnote, had it not been for the Apollo 1 fire, Gus Grissom would have been the First Man. Gus was my true inspiration to take great interest in astronautics. Gus and Neil had much in common.
