I think it was from the Apollo moon shots, wasn't it?
Neil Armstrong - Radio message, spoken as the lunar module “Eagle†touched down, announcing the first landing on the moon, July 20, 1969.

Congrats on the new ride! Its been so long, what were the specs again?
BTW, buy a pack of No Doze on the way to the dealership, call in sick tomorrow, and blow thru that break-in period in 24hrs

It was from the Apollo 11 mission (quite an important one at that, "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind," ), the lunar module known as "Eagle". Neil Armstrong said the infamous line as the module lands on the surface of the moon on July 20, 1069 at 4:18 PM, "The Eagle has landed."


Here is a time line of that historic event Space, the final frontier!

Congrats! I can't believe it's finally arrived considering you've been patiently waiting for around 4 months. I can't wait to see the pictures of your 996 after you've done all the mods that I know you're planning!

LOL - I knew about the moon landing but thought that line was from a movie...I guess the 'one step' line overshadows that one a lot!!

Geez, anyone under 40 was either not born or doesn't remember the actual moon landing.

For those not old enough to remember, the first words spoken on the moon were: "Houston, Tranquility base here. The Eagle has landed."
