Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon, passes away at age 82
NBC News is reporting that Neil Armstrong, pilot of the Apollo 11 mission and the first man on the moon, has passed away at the age 82.
Former U.S. astronaut, Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon, has died at the age of 82, U.S. media reported on Saturday.
Armstrong underwent a heart-bypass surgery earlier this month, just two days after his birthday on August 5, to relieve blocked coronary arteries.
Neil Armstrong will be forever remembered as the man who gave us all “one giant leap for mankind” as he stepped on the surface of the moon on July 20th, 1969.
