Neil Armstrong may have been the first man on the moon, but as a human organism, he never touched its surface. No part of his skin or body touched the moon, only the boot and other parts of his spacesuit. Touching the moon with his bare hand likely would have been fatal.

Ironically, the first man to touch with his naked hand a fragment of the moon (though not the surface of the moon) probably lived thousands of years ago. Some meteorites are fragments of the moon that hit the Earth after being dislodged by other meteorites or comets that hit the moon. Some early human probably touched such a rock without knowing what it was.

So, in a sense, we never needed a space program to handle a moon rock.

Let's talk about this apparently sad movie that has been made by mostly Not-Americans....

Boxofficemojo has it as at least a disappointment, might be #3 this week-end.

Yep, traveling to moon doesn't count because his physical body was maybe 1/2 inch from touching the moon's surface in a suit. :roll:

I guess we should be grateful that at least you have changed your view from being a flat earther to recognizing there is an actual moon to be reached.

I was putting out a feeler for interest, finding none I do nothing.

I do however have a Transbay Transit Center thread up that you could contribute to if you like....I find this unfolding tragedy to be fascinating.

Isn’t this akin to FOX NEWS buying airtime on MSNBC?
 
no badger has ever whistled "Hey Jude" while playing blackjack and eating a peanut butter and banana sandwich.
 
The Two Armstrongs

Neil Armstrong: First man to set foot on the moon. Courageous, self-effacing. Didn’t seek riches from fame. America reached for the heavens.

Lance Armstrong: Disgraced greedy cyclist. Liar, cheat, bully. America takes the path to hell.

Just because they have the same surnames doesnt mean theyre related.
