Goodnight sweet prince.

Goodnight, sweet prince.

1930-2012

Came here just to post this. STICKY

Goodnight sweet space prince.

;_;7

noooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The end of an era

2012 was such a great year for space, but this makes it all null and void.

Goodnight, sweet prince. May you be walking the Moon for all eternity.

i-i-its its okay, h-h-he is closer to space now...

>>4999400
He died to bring forth a new era of space, after four decades of nothing whatsoever happening.

Let us remember him, the harbringer of the First Space Age, with honor.

well i guess that's that.

RIP

>tfw

>buzz is now the happiest man on earth

Personally I think the blood doping charges were horseshit.

Who gives a fuck, he's not as important as Yuri

They should send his remains into space.

>>4999425
What, he only reached the moon first because he was under the effects of doping?

I've never visited /sci/ before, but I just wanted to give my condolences. I know how important Neil was.

>yfw most of the geniuses and contributors to science will die in your lifetime

our feels

HE'S WITH GOD NOW

Oh god this is awful.
;_;

>>4999429
yeah, they found blood test results consistant with EPO and wanted to strip his titles.

no moon landing for you, Mr. Armstrong!

>>4999428
Send a probe to the moon with his ashes.

>>4999410

RIP Mr. Armstrong.

Pic related, it is my face and soul when.

At least he got to see Mars first.

>>4999427
Still important, though.

AND I THINK IT'S GONNA BEEEE A LONG LONG TIME

RIP to a man living a lie, he never landed on the moon

Nice try.

The man who made us all dream of a glorious future.
The man who worked to do what everyone thought impossible.
The man who proved that the human spirit trumps all doubt.

Godspeed.

>>4999440
The moon? His legacy is something bigger than that. Send him outside the solar system.

>>4999448
send a bit of him to every human on the planet...

>that's one small speck for mankind

>>4999427
You Yuropoors really have to ruin everything, don't you?

>>4999450
>the human spirit
You mean, that human engineering trumps all doubt.

I'VE GOT FAITH IN THE HEART,
GOING WHERE MY HEART WILL TAKE ME

Probably the most famous words ever spoken by any human, ever. Quite an achievement.

That's..one...small...step...for man

One.......giant leap.......for mankind

>>4999439

That's stupid. The space program isn't a sporting event.

They could be juiced up to the limit with everything medicine has to offer as long as they reach their destination safely.

don't worry we are coming for you Neil!!

we'll bring you back to this Reality

can we?

>>4999460
Although the Space Race was akin to a sports feud.

See you, Space Cowboy...

>>4999462
Great song, but too bad it was an AWFUL series

>>4999376
Another competent actor dead.

>>4999376
RIP in peace.

>implying he actually went to the moon

you murrifats will believe anthing

>>4999478

Are you really doing what I think you're doing?

>>4999405
This.
May he rest in peace. And more importantly, may his memory inspire the world to to take an step as great as the one he took for us. Today we need people like him more than ever.

NO ;_;

He will continue the dream.

>Rest in Peace

such an antiquated saying.

how bout, "be dead in comfort?"

hOLY christ,
we're on the fucking moon, over.

REST IN FUCKING PEACE, FAGGOT.
WE ALL KNOW THAT SHIT WAS FAKED.

GOOD NEWS, EVERYONE

actual aerospace hero Chuck Yeager is still alive

>>4999427
I beg to differ, I'd say he's just as important. Both marked a fucking huge milestone: The first man to leave this rock, the first man to set foot on another rock.

I will be indeed sadder the year Buzz Aldrin or Yeager die.

he may well be walking with the other titans who did great feats first now

So he went to the moon? big deal

you whiteys need to get your priotities in order
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtBy_ppG4hY

>tfw American space hero dies

How many do we still have left?

Oh goddamnit...

>>4999490
unfortunately however the Wright Brothers have died.

>>4999496
>dead man walking

it might sound cliche but I kinda didn't consider he was a mortal man, I thought he'd live forever
I guess on some level he will

The man who brought America into space died 1977.

>black people

Lived to a ripe old age and was the first man on the moon.

Why be sad? The man had a great life.

>>4999502
How many were there in the first place? Too fucking few.

We need to start an alien war or something, or at least colonize the Moon, to bring us a few more space heroes.

Goodnight sweet prince...

Poor lad. They should shoot his ash into space.

>>4999511
Starting a space war would probably create more space an heroes than actual space heroes.

One small death for a man, one giant loss for humanity.

good night sweet prince.

Wake me, when you need me.

That's one small death for a man, one giant loss for mankind.

R.I.P.

One small death for a man, one giant loss for Mankind

With all the deaths this year of people I liked, I have very little hope for the future

thats two dead moonwalkers in the last five years, sheeit

>>4999535

IT'S A CONSPIRACY. THEY'RE TRYING TO SILENCE THEM.

>>4999516
Because watching a hero die is always sad. I have to agree this isn't tragic, but you know, he was the kind of guy everyone except crazy conspiracy theorists could agree was a great man, he was like a real life captain america, ofc people are gonna cry.

>>4999514
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQl2e2rySUc

1 min in: he admits it was science fiction

you have to read between the lines

Rest in Peace, you badass motherfucker

>>4999530
>>4999522
So very true...

There are no more heroes left in men.

Bioepic when?

What a loss. A symbol of a better time.

'sup /sci/
never been here before, but this is incredibly sad news.

I'm astonished by the reactions appearing on facebook etc. I didn't knew that many people actually believed it was fake.

>>4999541
lol'd

That nigga straightforward admitted it.

>>4999560
prove it was real

you cant

Hes exploring a new frontier now, and hes not coming back.

>>4999560
Not many people do, but the ones that do are very... vocal about it.
It's so sad to see them trying to disturb such an occasion as this, when everyone should be mourning a hero, not spewing conspirashit.

>>4999565

I expected better from /sci/

>>4999565
Prove god doesn't exist. Do it faggot.

>>4999560
It's probably the most effective way to troll people who aren't retards.

>>4999565
we have actual photos of the landing sites taken over 40 years later

How is an actor dying /sci/ related?

Remember when Buzz Aldrin punched a guy because the guy called him a liar? That was pretty cool.

Back to the stars he goes.

Rest in Peace brother, you were a true hero.

I hope Buzz Aldrin tours the country and personally punches every conspiracy faggot in the face.

Neil Armstrong "accomplished" no more than Ham the Chimp. At least Yeager had to fly the thing.

;__;7 Goodnight sweet prince

you inspired millions

RIP moonwalker

>>4999582
Ham the Chimp would have floated off into space if he tried to walk on the moon and take pictures.

He will be remembered.

RIP Cosmonaut

Oh, man, I'm sad now. That guy is a icon that transpasses national barriers. Not only USA's, one of mankind's greatest heroes. We never had many like him.

May we remember him. May kids around the world, from countless years to come, say "I want to be like Neil Armstrong". And may some of them grow to be other heroes of the entire mankind. We need them. Now, with his death, more than ever.

Farewell, Spaceman

>>4999580
We can only hope.

R.I.P Neil.

You look as happy as ever in this photo of you.

>>4999582
Neil Armstrong had to manually land on the moon.

RIP Legend. The Right Stuff, indeed.

>>4999582

He walked on the fucking Moon. That's one Hell of an accomplishment.

>>4999577
>still believing the moon landing was faked

Also, first time on /sci/, but god speed Neil. Space was my biggest hobby as a kid.

Today we mourn the loss of a hero. We salute you Commander Armstrong.

I can only hope some good comes from this news. Maybe with all the recent focus on NASA lately this will get more people talking about the space program and trying to get Congress to be more supportive of it.

He and Yuri are united in space now.

Shit.

he gets the sticky he deserves

>>4999610
Fucking seriously?

Goodnight Sweet Prince

I think we should build a monument in honor of the 3 men that landed on the moon first.


>tfw we won't make it to mars in our lifetimes

At least his name shall never be forgotten.
RIP

rip moonman the moon will be yours forever

look out buzz lightyear, your next

Sticky.
RIP Neil you glorious man

Rest in peace, Neil. You won't be forgotten.

>>4999629
>mfw Michael Collins didn't get to walk on the moon

>>4999582
dude

they landed the moonlander without aid of most instruments because those instruments were causing them to head straight for a boulderfield

not only did they land on the moon, they had to park the thing themselves

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwunQPxxIxI

Twelve men walked on the Moon. Now only eight of them are still alive. The youngest of the Apollo astronauts, Harrison Schmitt (Apollo 17), is only about five years younger than Armstrong. It's quite possible they'll all be gone before this decade is out.

Strange to think that we'll live in a time where people who walked on another world once walked on ours, but no longer.

>>4999626
Neil Young is trending on Twitter

This letter (even though they did not die on the moon) says more than I ever could.

Does anyone else think that his ashes are probably going to be sent to the moon?

>>4999629
Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Pete Conrad?

he was not a scientist...

It's OK murikans, the best is yet to come

>>4999645
>epic men of flesh and blood
Now that's the true meaning of the word "epic."

theres a starman waiting in the sky ;_;7

WHY ARE PEOPLE SO STUPID

>>4999646
Let's make it Mars. Let him conquer one more planet in his time.

>>4999658
The New World was a lush and livable world with vast untapped resources. It was immediately sustainable and profitable to colonize it. I don't think the analogy holds bro.

his final step... into a coffin.

>>4999645
>In ancient days, men looked at stars and saw their heroes in the constellations. In modern times, we do much the same, but our heroes are epic men of flesh and blood.

>>4999667

I just heard it on the TV.
So sad, He never even lived to see one of us go beyond the moon.
He went as far as he could have' went.

;_;7

FYI no white person will ever set foot on the moon again.

>>4999673
humanity went, when they didn't even know what a wheel was, over a frozen sea to an unknown continent and created a civilization there

we're a species of explorers... we'll get to space eventually

RIP, he looked nice in that Kubrick's film

>>4999661
I like this idea. In death, he shall be as in life: one step ahead of his race, and urging us to make the leap and follow him.

>>4999645
Oh god, my eyes are watering up.

>>4999661
either they send them with the next mars mission or they create one more moon mission just to send him along

there's no place on earth worthy of him

Goodnight sweet prince.

I hope he gets cancer.

That's one small death for a man, but one giant loss for mankind.

His deed shall not fall into obscurity.

We shall take Mars and, decades later, the stars!

>>4999718

He has a statue, Neil Armstrong Hall of Engineering at Purdue University

>>4999376
Oh my god... I was just thinking about this yesterday. I thought to myself, "Gosh, Neil Armstrong is probably going to die someday relatively soon. That's going to be really fucking sad."

>>4999645
I got something in my eye. And that something is tears

>>4999695
I wonder what would be more appropriate, to name the spacecraft after him or name the mars base after him

if the latter were chosen, maybe in a few hundred years, the great martian capitol would be the city Armstrong

>>4999645
This is a letter that was prepared in case they did not return from their mission, since the danger and risks were so high and the odds so against them:

From: Bill Safire

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IN EVENT OF MOON DISASTER:

Fate has ordained that the men who went to the moon to explore in peace will stay on the moon to rest in peace.

These brave men, Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin, know that there is no hope for their recovery. But they also know that there is hope for mankind in their sacrifice.

These two men are laying down their lives in mankind's most noble goal: the search for truth and understanding.

They will be mourned by their families and friends; they will be mourned by the nation; they will be mourned by the people of the world; they will be mourned by a Mother Earth that dared send two of her sons into the unknown.

In their exploration, they stirred the people of the world to feel as one; in their sacrifice, they bind more tightly the brotherhood of man.

In ancient days, men looked at the stars and saw their heroes in the constellations. In modern times, we do much the same, but our heroes are epic men of flesh and blood.

Others will follow, and surely find their way home. Man's search will not be denied. But these men were the first, and they will remain the foremost in our hearts.

For every human being who looks up at the moon in the nights to come will know that there is some corner of another world that is forever mankind.

Goodnight, sweet prince.

>>4999729
Both, maybe?

Also to that heartless bastard who linked Carl Sagan, that was both cruel and beautiful...

>>4999703
No.

I couldn't find a macro that would describe. Good night, sweet prince.

My 15 year old little brother was pretty much apathetic to it. I told him and he just went back to watching League of Legends videos on Youtube.
I should make him watch some Sagan.

In time, they will join you in the sun. In time, you will help them accomplish wonders.

>>4999645

Oh god damn it

>>4999756

Nah, Snoop is bro-tier. Most celebrities will probably not acknowledge Neil's death.

They need to develop themselves into a proper superpower again, to kickstart some competition and shit. Without competition there is only stagnation, and these days we have nothing but incompetent North Koreans and a bunch of terrorists.

Go anywhere on our planet, the windy peaks of tibet to darkest jungles of south america, and you'll people who have never heard of the Internet or prince Harry or Michael Jackson; but they all know it was Neil Armstrong who went for a walk on the moon.

Rest easy you beautiful speck of stardust.

May you haunt our sky forever.

Cute, but impossible - the angular size is well below the minimum resolution due to atmospheric seeing.

>Gagarin was also honored by the American space program during Apollo 11 when astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin left a memorial bag containing medals commemorating Gagarin and fellow cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov on the surface of the Moon. On 1 August 1971, Apollo 15 astonauts David Scott and James Irwin left the Fallen Astronaut on the surface of the Moon as a memorial to all the American astronauts and Soviet cosmonauts that died in the Space Race, with Yuri Gagarin listed among 14 others.

Show some respect.

The 5million GET needs to be here.
I'm not a get or a dubs guy, but such a milestone needs to be in a thread like this, it just does.

Wow...that's unexpected.

Just like some anon said- it's the end of an era

RIP

RIP Neil,
At this rate, we'll be telling our children that when we were young there were people who walked on the moon still alive.

Godspeed Space Cowboy, may your accomplishment to humanity and the exploration of space be remembered for all future generations to come and re-ignite our interest in the dream to travel among the stars like you started decades ago.

Through my passion in Science, you took one giant leap for humanity into the unknown to advance the scientific knowledge of all humans through your perseverance and bravery, for that you will always be one of my hero's.

RIP ;_;7

Good night, sweet prince.

May he rest. May his dream become our dream, may he become our dream. And may we launch Neil Armstrong, our dreamer, our dream. Into space.

I was two off from claiming the GET for this thread because I had to refresh captcha.

That's one small step for a aeiou, one giant leap for aeiou kind.

>>5000145
The world ain't USA. If NASA is gutted, then China or Russia gets there first.

Which, in turn, will hopefully boost up the interest in the States as well and NASA gets some funding back.

Just imagine if all these countries would combine their forces. We would be in other universes by the end of the decade.

>>5000145
/pol/ get out.

Hollywood must be mourning

>>5000177
Most of the major space agencies are combining their existing forces into supporting the ISS, which is kind of underwhelming.

He is a Star Child now anons.

Why should I praise a faggot who was cheating in bike races

dude was a juiced faggot fuck

>>5000177
It's a sad truth that conflict and strife advance mankind much faster than peace and cooperation.

>>5000197
Come on, at least he had some nice songs.

He walked on The Moon.

THE MOON.

Obligatory:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ftWerL1Wcs


It's time to let go...

The man's ashes need to be spread on the surface of the moon.

Unless of course he himself had other plans.

I wholeheartedly approve the Chinese space program. Or the North Korean one. Or anybody who thinks they can put a mark on the pages of history.

You know why? Look what happened last time. The Soviets tried it. They TRIED. They got a man into space, and glory be to him, but that's as far as they got, and that was all it took to light a fire under the ass of the entire United States.

Ten years later, we put a man on the moon. So go ahead, China, or whoever else thinks they've got a pair.

GIVE US A REASON.

But that's so wrong, faggot, so wrong.

I knew he will die in my lifetime, but damn.

RIP Neil. Spacebat will guide you on your way.

>>5000253

Ordinarily i'd hate you for that, but...it seems appropriate enough.

And i'm desperate for a good feel right now. thanks.

>>5000235
Well the first to walk on the moon.

I say that's more like piercing the heavens.

>>5000266
Thanks now I need to replay the Resistance games

Time to watch From the Earth to the Moon again.

RIP PALE MOONWALKER, YOU MAY DEPART THIS PLANE OF EXISTENCE BUT NEVER WILL YOU BE FORGOTTEN

Neil Armstrong proved to the world that were more then just mammals on some random planet.....

Thank you for you heroism and dedication to the human race. we may all have our issues and personal problems trying to make it in this life. But for once in our lives...we all banded together and watched as two men made the plunge not just for science...but for the future of mankind.


In the future when we colonize other planets and travel the cosmos. We can thank these brave men who were willing to take their lives just to say "we can do anything"

>In ancient days, men looked at stars and saw their heroes in the constellations. In modern times, we do much the same, but our heroes are epic men of flesh and blood.

Beautiful..

Now there are only 7 people left in the entire world who have walked on the moon.

Only 7 people who can truly disprove all those dumbfucked conspiracy assholes.

It's pretty sad really
