Astronaut And Innovation Icon Neil Armstrong Passes Away At 82

NBC News reports that astronaut and icon Neil Armstrong passed away earlier today due to complications from a heart-bypass operation he underwent a few weeks ago. He was 82. Though his merits were many, Armstrong was best known for one thing. On that fateful day back in July 1969, with the eyes of history watching, he clambered down the ladder on the front leg of the Lunar Module "Eagle" to become the first man to set foot on the Moon. "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind," he said.
