 40 years ago
40 years ago - I was 10 watching an old semi-round TV filled with dozens of radio tubes that glowed as a fuzzy picture in black and white did a "live broadcast" as the first men walked on the moon...
Remember it like it was yesterday...

 Re: 40 years ago
We came in peace for all of mankind.
Stated the plaque - which they uncovered and read
"Because of what you have done, the heavens have become a part of man's world. For one priceless moment in the whole history of man, all the people on this Earth are truly one, one in their pride in what you have done."
Said the President
