    As children, our geography and general knowledge books always reminded us about Neil Armstrong - the first man to walk on the moon. It sounded so fascinating then for all of us...imagine walking on the moon!

    This great astronaut passed away today at the age of 85. He had severe cardiovascular complications.

    As long as there are history books, Neil Armstrong will always be included in them as a great space legend.

    He was the first to set foot on the moon and the followed astronaut Aldrin. Together theyset up the American flag. The first words by Armstrong as he set foot on the moon is the now-famous phrase - THATS ONE SMALL STEP FOR a MAN, ONE GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND

    May his soul rest in eternal peace
