Neil Alden Armstrong was an American astronaut and the first person to walk on the moon. He stepped out at 02:56 GMT nearly 20 minutes after first opening the hatch on the Eagle Landing Craft. Armstrong had earlier reported the lunar module's safe landing at 20:17 GMT with the words:
"Houston, Tranquillity Base here. The Eagle has landed." then "one small step for man, one giant leap for man kind." Unfortunately though he died last year (2012).
