When:
Short story:
Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, Jr. become the first humans to land on Earth's Moon, aboard the Lunar Module of Apollo 11. Command Module Pilot Michael Collins remains in orbit, monitoring the mission. In 1969, The Byrds will record their brief electronic folk song, Amstrong, Aldrin And Collins about the achievement of Apollo 11. Also, Armstrong's famous quote, "One small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind", will appear as a sample at the start of the Little Caesar cover version of The Whole Of The Moon, originally written and recorded by The Waterboys.
