Neil Armstrong

Determining the first person on the Moon

Mar, 1969
Washington D.C., U.S.

According to Chris Kraft, a March 1969 meeting among Slayton, George Low, Bob Gilruth, and Kraft determined that Armstrong would be the first person on the Moon, in part because NASA management saw him as a person who did not have a large ego.
