On completion of his combat tour with Essex, he was assigned to a transport squadron, VR-32, in May 1952. Knight said that pilot-engineers flew in a way that was "more mechanical than it is flying", and gave this as the reason why some pilot-engineers got into trouble: Their flying skills did not come naturally.

As a NASA civilian test pilot, Armstrong was ineligible to become one of its astronauts at this time, as selection was restricted to military test pilots. In attendance were Armstrong's Apollo 11 crewmates, Collins and Aldrin; Gene Cernan, the Apollo 17 mission commander and last man to walk on the Moon; and former senator and astronaut John Glenn, the first American to orbit the Earth. He accepted a teaching position in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Cincinnati, [171] having chosen Cincinnati over other universities, including his alma mater Purdue, because Cincinnati had a small aerospace department, [172] and said he hoped the faculty there would not be annoyed that he came straight into a professorship with only a USC master's degree.

The polish needs to be completely dry before you apply the tape, so make sure you let it sit for a while. However, the rod did not fully extend, leaving the flag with a slightly wavy appearance, as if there were a breeze. Armstrong was assigned to Fleet Aircraft Service Squadron 7 (FASRON 7) at NAS San Diego (now known as NAS North Island). He sued Hallmark Cards in 1994, when they used his name, and a recording of the "one small step" quote, in a Christmas ornament without his permission.

Andrew Chaikin says in A Man on the Moon that Armstrong kept a low profile but was not a recluse, citing his participation in interviews, advertisements for Chrysler, and hosting a cable television series. When Armstrong left the University of Cincinnati, he became the chairman of Cardwell International Ltd. When Armstrong noticed they were heading toward a landing area that seemed unsafe, he took manual control of the LM and attempted to find a safer area. On July 20, 1969, Armstrong and Apollo 11 Lunar Module (LM) pilot Buzz Aldrin became the first people to land on the Moon, and the next day they spent two and a half hours outside the Lunar Module Eagle spacecraft while Michael Collins remained in lunar orbit in the Apollo Command Module Columbia.

Armstrong flew the plane back to friendly territory, but due to the loss of the aileron, ejection was his only safe option. NASA selected the second group that, compared with the Mercury Seven astronauts, were younger, [67] and had more impressive academic credentials. m) of his wing was torn off after it collided with a cable that was strung across the hills as a booby trap. He met his second wife, Carol Held Knight, at a golf tournament in 1992, when they were seated together at breakfast. It was the most complex mission yet, with a rendezvous and docking with an uncrewed Agena target vehicle, and the planned second American spacewalk ( EVA) by Scott.The planetarium at Altoona Area High School in Altoona, Pennsylvania is named after Armstrong and is home to a Space Race museum. Armstrong was involved in several incidents that went down in Edwards folklore or were chronicled in the memoirs of colleagues. Armstrong was one of two civilian pilots selected for this group; [69] the other was Elliot See, another former naval aviator. The mission was generally successful, despite a problem with the fuel cells that prevented a rendezvous. He was sent in an F-104 to inspect Delamar Dry Lake in southern Nevada, again for emergency landings.
