New discovery of Neil Armstrong's speech on the moon

In an analysis of new language claims, Neil Armstrong dropped the word 'a' in his famous phrase when he set foot on the Moon in 1969. Armstrong's statement should be: 'One small step for a man '.

In fact, the full recording of Armstrong's statement is just: 'One small step for man. One giant leap for mankind '. In terms of grammar, Armstrong was wrong to remove the "a" article. In this regard, Armstrong explained that he said 'a man' and not 'man' as in the tape.

Previously, researchers thought Neil Armstrong was 'going to' say 'a man' but due to air pressure the word 'a' disappeared. And they asserted that although the phrase is not completely grammatically correct, it still contains 'poetry'.

In terms of rhythm and symmetry, that phrase has 'captured' the epic moment of human history perfectly. There is also new evidence that this "poetic" statement is spontaneous rather than following the 'script' available by NASA or the White House.

The explanation of this inconsistency has two assumptions, one that is 'erased' electrostatic charge that loses the 'a', two of Armstrong's Ohio voice that sounds relatively light.

The "Eagle" made a historic "landing" on the Moon on July 20, 1969.

To conclude these controversies, Dr. Chris Riley, author of Haynes Apollo 11: An Owner's Manual and linguist John Olsson has released the most detailed analysis of Neil Armstrong's quote.

Riley and Olsson studied magnetic tapes from Johnson Space Center, Houston recording Neil Armstrong's words before and after performing the task. These videos show no article 'a' in Armstrong's statement. According to Riley, the recording shows that the word 'r' in the word 'for' and the 'm' in the word 'man' are interconnected, and there is no room for the word 'a'. Thus, the loss of the word "a" does not seem to be due to a technical problem, but by Armstrong.

However, Riley's analysis showed Armstrong's intention to be 'a man' because he raised his voice when he said the word 'man' while lowering his voice in the word 'mankind'. According to Olsson, this shows that Armstrong used the opposition that we often see in speeches. "That means you are aware of the difference between the word 'man' and 'mankind', so the word 'man' is here to refer to one person and not the whole of humanity, 'Olsson said. , Armstrong's statement echoes the meaning: "Small footsteps of man but a great step of humanity".

The history of humanity is still taking note that Armstrong was the first person to set foot on the moon.

Regarding the idea that Neil Armstrong had a script in the past, Olsson explained: 'When you look at Armstrong's image on the Moon, you will see that he has just moved and said. He said the first word 'this is' the moment he set foot on the Moon and when he said 'a great step of mankind' he was moving his whole body. Besides, he did not use the word 'and' or 'but' between the two sides of the sentence. So, for all of these reasons, we can see that this is a complete statement without pre-arrangement. '

He also asserted that the blatant error did not make Armstrong's statement out of meaning: 'I feel satisfied with my research, that does not mean directing attention to this petty pronunciation error, but we need to acknowledge Neil Armstrong's dedication. '
