Neil Armstrong is credited with being the first man to walk on the moon. When Apollo 11 touched down on the surface of the moon at 20:17:39 UTC on July 20, 1969, Armstrong's first words to Mission Control were, "Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed." He was the first astronaut to make his way down the ladder. At 2:56 UTC July 21, 1969, he placed his left foot on the surface of the moon and spole the following words, "That's one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind." In a press interview in 2005, Armstrong recalled his initial concerns about the Apollo 11 mission, believing they had only a fifty-fifty chance of landing on the moon, "I was elated, ecstatic and extremely surprised that we were successful."
