July 20, 1969: One Giant Leap for Mankind (nasa.gov)
4 points by cromulent on July 20, 2024 | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment


So long ago....

I can remember watching that on my nan's tiny black and white TV.

When I heard that as a 13 years old I immediately thought.

How far can a giant leap? why is a giant leaping for mankind?

what does it mean? # Is there an olympic sport with Giants leaping?

does it only happen every 4 years on the 29th February?

so many questions for a young mind

I am still none the wiser and I am nearly 70
