40 years ago today, I clearly remember watching Apollo 11 land on the moon and Neil Armstrong take his first step. The family was together watching in my sister's room, because she had the newest TV (it was still black and white). I don't remember for sure, but I can't imagine we were watching anything other than Walter Cronkite on CBS. I was (almost exactly) 3.5 years-old and I think it's the earliest memory I have. Pretty cool for a first memory.
Kottle has assembled The giant Apollo 11 post. "In this entry, I've collected some of the best resources on the web related to the anniversary...articles, historical documents, audio, video, transcripts, photos, and the like. Enjoy."
