As well as the North Pole expedition, he was involved with a 1976 exploration mission of this Ecuadorian cave. Read a bit more about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cueva_de_los_Tayos Scroll down to the heading '1976 BCRA expedition'.
It probably should be listed on his wiki page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.175.165.167 (talk) 03:19, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
When I saw the addition of the bracketed a, I researched it for two reasons. 1. Have we been wrong all these decades about what was so famously said; is there thoughtful, informed disagreement? 2. Is it policy to add language into a famous quote based on what is determined to be a grammatical error? If not, what other reasoning could there be for doing so? I couldn't locate editor discussion on this matter. What I found was more complicated. I have linked to four solid sources about this for discussion here if it is desired. I don't think discussion is warranted, however. I believe the four sources support the article's handling of the quote and thought the addition of them might answer questions about the wording for readers.

While it may be obvious to most readers, it should be explained why Armstrong's statement would be confusing or grammatically incorrect. Without the "a" before "man", the meaning of the statement would have been self-contradictory, because "man" in that sense means the same thing as "mankind"; thus the statement would mean: A small step for mankind and a giant leap for mankind. Which is it? By contrast, if "man" is preceded by "a", then "man" refers to a single person, and the statement makes sense. 174.56.173.38 (talk) 12:11, 10 December 2023 (UTC)kolef174.56.173.38 (talk) 12:11, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

neil A. Armstrong wasn't the first person on the moon. he was the first documented but not the first. the first person was a dude who came out first to take picture. another thing is Neil A spelt backwards is A. lien or Alien Kairosssssss (talk) 15:27, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Not done. I'm assuming this is a joke, but we're obviously not going to replace the text 'astronaut" with "person who flew on rockets". TJRC (talk) 23:05, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
