As a toddler, Neil Armstrong attended an air show with his father. It was the beginning of a lifelong love affair. Neil earned his pilot's license before he could even drive a car! After flying airplanes in the U.S. Army, he joined NASA, where he was offered the job of leading the first-ever expedition to the Moon. In 1969, Neil made history by becoming the first person to set foot on the Moon.
