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.

Who was the last man to land on moon?

Gene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt were the crew on the last manned Apollo flight, Apollo 17. Who was the last can be answered different ways, depending on semantics. They both landed together. Cernan was first out, so you can say Schmitt was the twelfth of twelve different men to walk on the moon, so was he last? Cernan was the last one back in the LM when they came back to earth, so no one has walked on the moon after him, so is he last?


What did neil Armstrong say when he landed on moon?

Houston, Tranquility Base here, the Eagle has landed. That is what Neil Armstrong said when Buzz Aldrin and he landed on the Moon. That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind. That is what Neil Armstrong said when he first set foot on the lunar surface.


Who was th first man to land on the moon?

Buz Aldrin NOT Neil Armstrong! Neil Armstrong landed on the moon 10 minutes after Buz Aldrin did.They also went with Mike Collins who flew round the moon several times never actually stopping the rocket in space at all! So Neil Armstrong should not take all the credit because actually Buzz Aldrin landed first but if you want our science teacher o be happy say Neil Armstrong. :)


Did Buzz Aldrin say anything when he landed on the moon?

I believe he was the Lunar Lander pilot and his words were "10 feet...CONTACT!" It was a rather dramatic landing for them and they almost didn't make it. Their fuel reserves were down to fumes! He said "beautiful view .......magnificent desolation "when he first stepped on the moon
