Un salto para la humanidad: hace 45 años a las 10:56 pm EDT Neil Armstrong está listo para plantar el primer pie humano sobre otro mundo.

 Un salto para la humanidad: hace 45 años a las 10:56 pm EDT Neil Armstrong está listo para plantar el primer pie humano sobre otro mundo. Con más de quinientos millones de personas viendo la televisión, se sube por la escalera y proclama: "Eso es un pequeño paso para (a) hombre, un salto gigantesco para la humanidad." Buzz Aldrin se reúne con él en breve, y ofrece una descripción simple pero potente de la superficie lunar: "magnífica desolación". Ellos exploran la superficie durante dos horas y media, la recogida de muestras y la toma de fotografías.

Hoy en día, nos encontramos en un nuevo horizonte, a punto de dar el siguiente salto gigante-más profundamente en el sistema solar. Las misiones Apolo ardieron un camino para la exploración humana de la Luna y en la actualidad estamos ampliando ese camino a los asteroides cercanos a la Tierra, Marte y más allá.
 
 
 
 
A Giant Leap for Mankind: 45 years ago at 10:56 p.m. EDT Neil Armstrong is ready to plant the first human foot on another world. With more than half a billion people watching on television, he climbs down the ladder and proclaims: "That's one small step for (a) man, one giant leap for mankind." Buzz Aldrin joins him shortly, and offers a simple but powerful description of the lunar surface: "magnificent desolation." They explore the surface for two and a half hours, collecting samples and taking photographs.

Today, we stand on a new horizon, poised to take the next giant leap-deeper into the solar system. The Apollo missions blazed a path for human exploration to the moon and today we are extending that path to near-Earth asteroids, Mars and beyond. go.nasa.gov/1n6Gk9T
