Why did president Kennedy choose Neil Armstrong to go to the moon?
The selection was made long after John F. Kennedy's administration. But both the Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson administrations were involved in the NASA moon landing guidelines, which ultimately recommended that a non-military astronaut should be chosen to first set foot on the Moon. Neil Armstrong had flown as a US Navy pilot in the Korean War, but had resigned his commission in the Naval Reserve in 1960. Although NASA insisted, and still does, that the team of Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin (an Air Force colonel) were the most qualified to make the initial Moon landing, the political aspects of the historic mission were not overlooked. Aldrin, a Presbyterian, also had to downplay his religious views while on the mission.
