Neil Armstrong

Legendary Apollo 11 astronaut Buzz Aldrin, the second person to set foot on the Moon, said he had married his longtime girlfriend on Friday, his 93rd birthday.

„One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." U.S. astronaut Neil Armstrong's words became symbolic of the Apollo 11 mission, which took mankind to the Moon for the first time.

How often have we thought about the existence of life beyond Earth, and feared that if we ever encountered extraterrestrial beings, they might wreak all kinds of havoc on our planet, as shown in the movies.

A bag used by U.S. astronaut Neil Armstrong to bring the first samples of moon dust back to Earth was sold to an anonymous bidder for $1.8 million at an auction in New York on Thursday marking the 48th anniversary of the first moon landing.

At least 700 photographs from NASA’s “golden era” in space exploration  are being sold by Bloomsbury Auctions in London. This includes the first “selfie” taken in space, as well as a rare image of the first astronaut to ever set foot on the Moon: Neil Armstrong.
