"...At 2:56 UTC on July 21, Armstrong made his descent to the Moon's surface and spoke his famous line "That's one small step for (a) man, one giant leap for mankind" exactly six and a half hours after landing..."

OK...so I was 11 y/o when Apollo 11 landed. You'd think that if I could remember something from when I was 1 y/o that I would remember wtf I was doing when I was 11 and everyone else on the planet was watching TV!!! Maybe I was out looting or something...lmfao! Oh shoot...another missed opportunity!
Anyway...your PM cleared up what it was we watched in school. You are right in that it was the assassination of JFK. TY for your help hun!
