It boggles my mind that there are no real plans for a Low-G spin grav station or craft being talked about rn. We have decades of data on micro gravity and know that's its pretty bad for you. Comparatively, we know next to nothing about long term low-G effects on the body. I guess once we have our campsite site on the moon, we'll start learning about that, but it seems like a no brainer to try and incorporate some level of spin gravity on the way out to Mars

Nah. Literally just say the same thing, verbatim: "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." You're already guaranteed to be less cringe than anyone who posts a blog about what you said.

That's why you keep it simple, stupid. Neil himself was jacked at the time, and fucked up his own prepared line because all the pressure was on him. If I had the unlucky office of being the thirteenth person to set foot on the Moon, my line would be this:

"We return to our Moon in peace."

They'll probably go with something that's not just woke, but also convoluted and forgettable. Most know that "Mr. Watson, come here; I want you." were the first words spoken on the telephone but few know that "what hath God wrought" was the first message sent by Samuel Morse by telegraph.
