Damn I really did it. I blew the first words on the moon, didn't I?

Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man's desire to understand.

We would like to give special thanks to all those Americans who built the spacecraft; who did the construction, design, the tests, and put their hearts and all their abilities into those craft. To those people tonight, we give a special thank you, and to all the other people that are listening and watching tonight, God bless you. Good night from Apollo 11.

Gliders, sail planes, they're wonderful flying machines. It's the closest you can come to being a bird.
