"One small step for man, one big leap for mankind"was the correct phrase. Neil Armstrong's famous phrase has been thought of with his wife before the moon landing.It seems he apparently forgot the a between the words "for" and "man."

==================================

-- It was " ... one giant leap ... "

-- In response to the great outcry some time later, Armstrong announced that

he had actually said " ... for a man ... ". An inconveniently timed static crash

on the recording makes it hard to confirm or disprove it. So for heaven's sakes,

ladies, let's give him the benefit of the doubt. I mean, the guy had just stepped

out of a flimsy machine on which he had already almost died a little while earlier,

and had stepped onto the surface of the moon for gosh sakes!

What did the first astronaut say when he landed on the moon?

Neil Armstrong was the first man on the moon. He famously said "One small step for man .. but .. one giant leap for mankind". It's not actually his line because another of the astronauts (I think) was filmed saying it beforehand and it was supposed to be "One small step for a man but a giant leap for mankind" because although the first step on the moon was a small step for him, it was a huge moment in history.
