I remember the first moon landing. I was fourteen years old at the time, in my second year of High School.
One television, (black and white back then) was set up that morning in a corridor, crammed full with kids from 5 classes. A lucky few sat on chairs, while the rest of us perched on lockers or sat on the floor. We waited, laughed and joked, threw things at each other, and waited again, as the time for the actual stepping out of the module kept being delayed. Eventually, at 12:26 local time, Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon.
