(CBS News) Neil Armstrong, the Apollo 11 astronaut who became the first human being to set foot on another world, has
died. He was 82.
In a statement his family said Armstrong had passed away following complications resulting from cardiovascular procedures.
The family described him as a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend, and also as "a reluctant American
hero who always believed he was just doing his job."
That's one small step for (a) man, one giant leap for mankind.
When Armstrong set foot on the moon on July 20, 1969, he fulfilled the goal that had been set by President John F.
Kennedy just eight years earlier.
