'One Small Step for Man': Was Neil Armstrong Misquoted? […] Upon taking a "small step" onto the surface of the moon in 1969, Neil Armstrong uttered what would become one of history's most famous one-liners. But strangely, what he actually said is far from clear. Listeners back on Earth heard, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." But Armstrong […] maintained afterwards that he actually said something slightly different: "That's one small step for a man..." "It's just that people just didn't hear [the 'a']," Neil Armstrong told the press after the Apollo 11 mission. That little indefinite article makes a big difference, semantically speaking. Without it, "man" abstractly represents all of humanity, just like "mankind." Thus, the quote is essentially, ''That's one small step for mankind, one giant leap for mankind." […] in 2006, computer programmer Peter Shann Ford might have vindicated Armstrong. Ford downloaded the audio recording of the moon man's words from a NASA website and analyzed the statement with software that allows disabled people to communicate via computers using their nerve impulses. In a graphical representation of sound waves of the famous sentence, Ford said he found evidence that the missing "a" had been spoken after all: It was a 35-millisecond-long bump of sound between "for" and "man" that would have been too brief for human ears to hear. "I have reviewed the data and Peter Ford's analysis of it, and I find the technology interesting and useful," Armstrong said in a statement. ''I also find his conclusion persuasive. Persuasive is the appropriate word." […] What was the actual sentence uttered by Neil Armstrong, upon his arrival on the Moon? Alguém me ajuda responde essa por favor !!!!!

Ao pesquisar na internet, percebe-se que há uma grande divergência de opiniões, se ele disse um pequeno passo para UM homem, e um grande passo para a humanidade, ou um pequeno passo para O homem e um grande passo para a humanidade, porém, pessoas da Nasa que estavam na terra alegam que na verdade ele disse que era um pequeno passa para UM homem (se referindo a ele) e não para O homem, que representaria a humanidade como um todo, alguns não ouviram o artigo ''a'', o que sugeriu a celebre frase, ''one small step for man'' e não como ele supostamente disse, ''that one small step for A man, one giant leap for mankind''', ainda não se tem certeza, mas segundo pessoas que estavam na terra na NASA, ele disse that one small step for A man
