Our reporter asked people what they were doing on July 20th, 1969 when man first walked on the moon. Here is what they said:

Kate Jones, waitress I remember that day very well. I was fifteen years old. It was a hot and humid day, and I was with my family in the mountains. We were having a picnic. We didn?t see the moon landi ng when it happened, but we were thinking about it. We saw it later on the TV news.

John Bates, postman I was eighteen years old. It was a very exciting day. I was watching TV at home when the astronaut walked on the moon. His name was Neil Armstrong. I remember he could jump really high because people aren?t so heavy on the moon. When he returned, he became a national hero in America, and famous all over the world.

Paul Robinson, doctor I was twelve. I remember the day, but I don?t remember what I was do ing. I remember I wanted to go to the moon, too. My dream was to become an astronaut and fly in a rocket. I wanted to see the earth from the moon. The astronauts on the moon said

that the earth looked very beautiful from there.

Linda Brown, clerk I was working that day. I was twenty then. I didn?t see the man land on the moon because I was busy. Of course I knew about it. I read about it in the newspaper the next day. I thought it was amazing. Maybe one day people will travel to the moon for vacations!

Mark Green, teacher I was only seven years old then. My parents talked about it, and I learned about it later in school, but I don?t remember the day. I was too young to remember. Maybe I was having fun in the playground with my friends when it happened.
