When I think of Neil Armstrong, I think of this.

Yes, I'm aware that this wasn't the actual newspaper headline for this event, but it should've been.

Nasa had put a pole through the top part of the flag and merely told the astronauts to position it in a way that appeared like it was blowing in the wind...

...that or it changed to that look when their lunar module took off from the surface of the moon.

Really sad. This man truly made history with the Apollo 11 mission.
