阿姆斯特朗:他的脚印不仅留在了月球

Mr. Armstrong flew 78 missions as a Navy combat pilot in the Korean War and later gained prominence as a civilian government test pilot.

朝鲜战争期间，阿姆斯特朗作为海军战斗机飞行员执行过78次飞行任务。后来，他在担任政府民航试飞员时脱颍而出。

During his historic moon exploration on July 20, 1969, some of Mr. Armstrong's other transmissions reflected his unflappable demeanor. Before returning to a ticker-tape parade and a 28-city world tour, the aviator was understated in describing his situation and surroundings some 240,000 miles above Earth. In one of his first transmissions to controllers on the ground, he calmly told them: 'I tell you, we're going to be busy for a minute.'

在1969年7月20日历史性的月球探索之旅期间，阿姆斯特朗与地面之间的其他一些通讯反映出了他的镇定自若。他在描述自己在地球上空约24万英里（约合38万公里）的太空中的情况和周围环境时很有节制。在传送给地面控制中心的首批信息中，他冷静地对中心说，我告诉你们，我们要忙上一会了。他返回地面后，参加了一场盛大游行和全球28个城市的巡回宣传活动。

Later in the mission, Mr. Armstrong, who earned his pilot's license as a teenager and idolized Charles Lindbergh, epitomized the calm, assured tone astronauts prized. 'It's different, but it's very pretty out here,' he matter-of-factly told controllers. 'I suppose they are going to make a big deal of all this.'
