Neil Armstrong would have turned 87 today. A man who reached for the stars. Gone but never to be forgotten. May his legacy continue to inspire us all.

I love the raw emotion in this photo. One of my favorite of him.

For those unaware , Armstrong underwent bypass surgery on August 7, 2012, to relieve blocked coronary arteries. Although he was reportedly recovering well, he developed complications in the hospital and died on August 25, in Cincinnati, Ohio. He was 82 years old. RIP hero.
