Você já deve ter ouvido a frase que Neil Armstrong disse naquele momento: “É um pequeno passo para um homem, um grande salto para a humanidade.” Discreto e avesso a discussões, Armstrong foi alçado ao estrelato no instante em que deu aquele primeiro passo na Lua. A mítica em torno do homem se expandia conforme o mundo inteiro acompanhava a saga que definiria a nossa história.
