Interesting fact of the day: The first words spoken on the moon was "That's one small step for _A_ man, one giant leap for man kind". However due to a misinterpretation he has always been consistently misquoted as saying "..one small step for man..."

@freemo I have listened to that I don't know how many times since that day in 1969, and for the life of me I cannot hear "a man". I'm sure that was the script, but I'm equally certain Armstrong bungled it. Not that I fault him a bit! I probably would have just stood there in awe, forgetting everything.

@twdockery Its not that armstrong mubundled it, its because static kicked in and you cant hear the word "a", which is why there is a small pause right where the word should be.
