I was six years old at the time and remember my parents taking us to house of some friends that evening who had the best television set. A lot of my relatives and my parents friends were there. They seemed awestruck, gathered around that television set.

For me it seemed quite normal and a little boring. I hadn't lived long enough to realize the sheer implausibility of landing a man on the moon. Didn't that sort of stuff happen every day? As children we accept the world as it is so readily. Our parents miracles are not our miracles.
