One small step for (a) man...

Well...it's finally decided!

I'm sure you've all been holding your collective breaths for the last 40 years...But now, thanks to the breaking news below, you can rest easy...

For nearly 40 years Neil Armstrong has been accused of fluffing his lines during his first steps on the Moon.

On tapes of the Moon landings, he appears to drop the "a" from the famous quote: "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind."

But new analysis of the tapes has proved Mr Armstrong right after all.

Computer programmer Peter Shann Ford used audio analysis software to show that the missing "a" was blotted out by transmission static.


What a relief! :)
