Neil Armstrong

        Armstrong was born on August 5, 1930.  He had one sister and one brother. As a kid he loved airplanes and he got his pilot license at 15. He went to college but had to put that on hold because he was called to join the Air Force. He served in Korea and at one time his plane got hit but he was safe. After he was in the Air Force, he went back to college to finish his degrees.  He worked as a new plane tester, but then decided to apply to become an astronaut. He had to go through very harsh physical tests but he passed.  He was the second group of astronaut ever. His main mission was Apollo 11.  Apollo 11 was the first flight to the moon ever and they succeeded and gathered a lot of new information about the moon. He was the first man to step on the moon and he called the moment, "That's one small step for man, that's one giant leap for mankind".  He soon retired from being a astronaut and became a college professor. He was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom the highest award an American citizen can ever get. He died on August 25, 2012 but his legacy still lives.

Space Race

          The Space Race was part of the Cold War between the US and the Soviet Union. Everyone thought space exploration was the next big thing. So the US and the Soviet Union were racing to the moon. And so it started, the Soviet Union were the first to send a satellite to orbit the Earth. But the US was not far behind sending there own satellite. The Soviet Union was still in the lead by sending there own into space to orbit the Earth one time. The US was catching up by sending John Glenn into orbit for just one  rotation. The last stretch was coming up, who could land on the moon first. Apollo 11 was the first moon landing attempt and the US was successful. The Soviet Union had four fail attempt to the moon, but the US beat them there. And thats how the US won the race to the moon."One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind," was Neil Armstrong's famous quote while he was on the moon.
