I was 7 and I remember all the fuss about us landing on the moon when it first happened. For a long time I thought I remembered watching Armstrong take the first step on the moon, but I had it confused with another moon landing that I watched while spending the night with one of my friends. But I did grow up drinking Tang; eating "space sticks"; and collecting cereal box tops to get a free toy "moon rover". Onee year for Chistmas I got a huge detailed model of one of the Apollo Saturn rockets with the landing module and everything. It was way too complicated for me to put together properly, but I glued it up and had a lot of fun playing with it.
One thing most people today don't remember about the moon landing is that a lot of people protested against it. They claimed it cost way to much money when there were so many issues with poverty in the United States.
