I know in USA it was on at peak time .
All I remember how tiring it was in UK sitting up into small hours as a geeky little schoolboy and watching Neil Armstrong climbing down the Eagle's ladder.
He finally did the 'small step for man , giant leap for mankind 'bit and my mother chased me off to bed
I still spent another twenty mins leaning out of bedroom window staring up at the moon in awe.
They told us at school that , by year 2000, it would be as easy to get there as hopping on a train to London , and it would have little domes all over it with hotels in them, what an anti-climax at the Millennium!
