On July 20, 1969, Commander Neil Armstrong and Lunar Module Pilot Buzz Aldrin landed the Apollo Lunar Module Eagle on the moon.

I watched this as a kid at my grandparents house. I fell asleep on the carpet in front of the TV, but got up to see it. I didn't really understand the ramifications it would have but I knew it was pretty incredible.

Outside of JFK, has there ever been another incident that has so many conspiracy theories attached to it? MAGA brains need not comment.
