Neil Armstrong
His most famous quote is: "That's one small step for (a) man, one giant leap for mankind. " He spoke those words when he set his foot on the moon. He wanted to say "That's one small step for a man…", but for some reason the "a" was never spoken. Armstrong thought he had said it.

Answer:
Neil Armstrong was a NASA astronaut most famous for being the first person to walk on the moon, on July 20, 1969. An accomplished test pilot, Armstrong also flew on the Gemini 8 mission in 1966. He retired from NASA in 1971 and remained active in the aerospace community, although he chose to keep mostly out of the public spotlight. Armstrong died Aug. 25, 2012, at age 82.
Armstrong was famously reticent about his accomplishments, preferring to focus on the team that helped him get to the moon rather than his own first steps. "I guess we all like to be recognized not for one piece of fireworks, but for the ledger of our daily work," Armstrong said in an interview on CBS's "60 Minutes" program in 2005, according to Reuters.
In another interview, when asked what
it feels like to have his footprints remain on the moon's surface for thousands of years, Armstrong said, "I kind of hope that somebody goes up there one of these days and cleans them up," Reuters added.
An official biography of Armstrong was published in 2005, called "First Man: The Life of Neil A. Armstrong." It was written by James R. Hansen, a former NASA historian and later a history professor at Auburn University.
