In Memory Of Neil Armstrong, Take A Moment To Wink At The Moon. Of all 12 astronauts to have stood on the lunar surface during the Apollo era, none are as popular as the first and most famous of the moon-walkers, Neil Armstrong. Described by his fellow Apollo 11 crew mate Buzz Aldrin as the “epitome of a space man”, Armstrong has served both before and after death as a cornerstone of NASA’s ethos-building force, one which has resonated since its inception 56 years ago. On August 25, 2012, Neil Armstrong passed away as the result of complications from a cardiovascular procedure. Following his death, Neil Armstrong’s family released a statement, which reads in part: “For those who may ask what they can do to honor Neil, we have a simple request. Honor his example of service, accomplishment and modesty, and the next time you walk outside on a clear night and see the moon smiling down at you, think of Neil Armstrong and give him a wink.” On this day, join us in celebrating the accomplishments and memorable career of Neil Armstrong by taking an opportunity to wink at the moon!
