As we're playing a space game, it's only right that we pay our respects to the big man.

makes it even more of a shame that NASA isnt doing any more manned missions, would have been nice for him to get to see man go back to the moon.

Let's just hope the private sector gives it the boost it's always needed. After all, what fires up human motivation more than profit?What?

o7 Mr. Armstrong. You dared to go where nobody went before and we could see it happen on the TV.

Fly safe, Mr. Armstrong.

These men were/are all a bit mad, from Gagarin to those in the space station. Strap yourself to a tube filed with explosive fuel and light it up. RIP Neil, enjoy the trip to the unknown.

He will always stay my memories. He was a great hero to me. And great hero to all.

May he rest in peace. May his inspiration live on forever.

I like big guns. I can not lie. You other suckas can't deny. When I warp in, with an itty bity sig, with an arty in your face, you get sprung. You want to pull out your debuffs, 'cause you want to loot my stuff...deep, in a worm with nary, an escape but you can't stop staring. 'Cause, Oh crap!, Baby's got Point!

One of the few pioneers to make science fiction science fact, may your rats be plentiful and the loot gods smile upon you Mr Armstrong.

RIP o7

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
