Even people who know the first man on the moon, Neil Armstrong, actually said, “That’s one small step for a man” mistake when he said that.
But, James Oberg goes overboard the other direction, in shooting down other misstatements about Apollo 11, in claiming there was no controversy between Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin as to who would step on the moon first.
Bullshit, James. Buzz ached and lobbied for that.
But, other than that, Oberg is good in taking on a number of erroneous impressions of Apollo 11 – many created by TV or movies.
