Very very hard to continue with this document the Justice Department is assigning some new lawyers to push the citizenship question President Trump wants on the 2020 census after the Supreme Court said it didn't buy the administration's explanation for why the question should be asked Meanwhile the New York Times as well as members of Congress and others say conditions in which migrant children are being held at the border are horrific the president essentially calling this reporting in The New York Times a hoax all this reporting really eye opening indicating that there are awful conditions in some of these migrant facilities including ones many which housed miners are rampant reports of disease and hunger and just unhygenic conditions of the president saying that he believes the New York Times is working hand in hand with Democrats to plant these stories to embarrass him correspondent Bora Sanchez reports on Sunday the president said reporters should see the facilities and that he will allow them to visit migrant holding areas which Trump says are beautifully run on Sunday Iran enrich increased its uranium enrichment beyond the limit allowed by the 2050 nuclear deal the us left I may have been hanging.

I believe Cunningham a very special next 30 minutes don't move we have the son of Christopher Columbus' is here the son of Neil Armstrong is with us now Mark how you don't I'm good well thanks for having me all right let's get into July 20th 969 you're a like 6 years old correct Did you have a sense as Neil Armstrong son what was going on I knew what was happening Bill but but I really didn't understand the risk or the danger and I certainly didn't understand the historical context I just hadn't been around long enough to to understand 6 or so and so the movie depicts and I want to thank you for the inviting me to the to the 1st showing 1st man and it depicts kind of like a scene where your mom make sure dad sit down with you and your older brother and say Neal you got to tell your children how difficult that is do you have any memory of that meeting i do we never met in the in the dining room bill so so when we were called to the dining room for a family meeting. You know my 1st thought was what up what if I don't I am going to be trouble Yeah but you know we we did have that meeting and it went very much like it was portrayed in the movie dad expressed that he was very confident in the mission and that he would come home. He said We may not actually get to the moon we only think there's a 5050 chance that we'll we'll get there why why because the c.n.n. For that did a great job 2 or 3 nights ago on this and they made the point that when that thing blasted off on July the 20th and here we go there was a real probability they wouldn't land Yeah they've done one test flight with the you know with the lunar module in lunar orbit and Apollo 10. And you know they went to I think about 50000 feet from the lunar surface so so you know getting that to that last last 50000 feet was I think as my dad said you know not completely trivial and so and so you know there were just plenty of things that could go wrong and and and everything had to go right in order for them to actually land and as the module was landing it depicts how your dad who was real close to the mission failing because they were in the wrong part their reporters the size of the Explain the process as your dad is in his piloting that lamb is the difficulty just before he landed Yes So just like a lot of commercial airlines today they had an autopilot that was taking them to where they thought was a good location but for some reason they were a little bit off on that and they were coming down into a big crater with I think boulders the size of buses and you know if you don't land on a nice stable flat surface you you run the risk of damaging the you know the part of the lunar lander or or you know having your takeoff from be compromised or heading or not telling straight out or tipping over or tipping over and worst case kinds of things to go wrong so he had to take over manually and find a nice flat spot unfortunately there was just enough fuel for him to do that how much time did he have by the time he landed. Well they say I think there was 2 percent of the fuel remaining but as dad pointed out it was a round tank and the fuel would slosh back and forth so they didn't think it was that accurate in the end he felt like there you know he had a little bit of fuel left as he landed he stayed there a little bit of time and then he had hours 2 and a half hours the whole let moon landing was 2 and a half hours from start to finish the entire time Correct correct. 969 July 20th I'm at 1005 Danae Avenue apartment number 8 and watching all my Sony Trinitron and I'm thinking Am I really watching this because this was impossible John f. Kennedy said we're going to do this did you as a 6 year old with your older brother and your mom where were you when that was going on we were at our house we had a house yeah we had our house with friends and neighbors and relatives all you know sort of coming and going during that during that day and during the whole mission really. So we were watching you know we had a I think a 20 sense 6 inch color t.v. State of the art and I don't have big years ways but there is my dad this little boy saying this my dad on the moon you know it's really grainy and they were already here so it was and a lot of the mission wasn't film because there was no camera to show you what was happening so they had these animations to kind of show you where things where they were and you know I'm just grateful that it all worked out well why was why was Neil Armstrong selected as opposed to all of the other dozens waapa Connla I mean John Glenn's from here or whopper going at it why was Neil Armstrong selected as that one guy. Yes You know I think he would say that's a question for Dick Slayton but but. I think he was just one of he was a one of the commanders in the rotation at the time you know if you think about it Pete Conrad get an apology 12 Jim Lovell in Apollo 13 Tom Stafford you know in Apollo 10 those are all guys that were that were highly qualified to take on a mission like this so it could have been them it could have been them and and it just turns out that Apollo 11 because things went well on Apollo 878910 Apollo 11 got the 1st chance and like I said they only thought there was a 5050 chance that they would get it they would land because they you know they were used to things going wrong that's what they were trained for and when things went wrong you learned what you could you came back and regrouped and then you tried it again one of the saddest events were those 3 astronauts strapped in their seats during a training mission and they were set ablaze How did that color the Apollo landing mission after that and how was it what was your dance reaction will you know Ed White was our director next door neighbor and my mom and Pat were very close and we were close to my and I was close to all those families and it hit us very very hard the program reset the program essentially said we're going to stop. This crazy schedule and we're going to go back and we're going to look at everything so they redesigned a lot of the spacecraft at that point and they and again this is just an example of them learning from their mistakes and unfortunately in this case the mistakes were tragic and really of a loss that. That's that's hard to imagine unless you've been right there in the middle of it and as he landed 2 and a half hours the whole time on the moon he'd step down one small step for man one giant leap for mankind and the movie depicts and also c.n.n. Said that Buzz Aldrin was kind of politicking behind the scenes to be the 1st man and that kind of worked against him is kind of like trying to join Augusta National if you politick to get in and you're not in your Dad quiet and you always thought of himself as an engineer that's when a flyer he didn't think of himself as a star do you think that the movie accurately depict that they came to kneel partially because of buzz or was out irrelevant you know I don't know that that I or the movie had any particular insight on this as to you know why things unfolded the way they did there's been a lot written on it Bill and I just and I'm not sure you know what that what the truth is I do feel like. Lobbying for for a certain you know set of responsibilities. You know probably were not helpful to to that the cause of going $969.00 to those in Apollo no this store called character I've said many times that in 500 years we won't be around but the only name known from the 20th century when up the f.d.r. Hitler it will be Neil Armstrong because one of the he was he is Christopher Columbus was there a sense that if this thing works this is one of the greatest This is the greatest human achievement in world history that to have this out was there a sense of that or was it a sense well this is our mission let's go do it I think filth they were just doing their job and and they knew that there was a greater historical context I don't think they necessarily. I spent a lot of time thinking about that because they had so much work to do so much training and so many sort of things that were top of mind right that the latest problems the latest improvements to the spacecraft the latest improvements of the space suit every every one of those astronauts had a specialty or multiple specialties and they were responsible for making sure that their areas were developing the way that they should to keep everybody safe Mark Armstrong the son of Neil Armstrong the lowest bidder on each of those various aspects got the job so he was in a craft that had the lowest bidder on each of those government projects and you told me off the you know the average age of the engineers in that room was 26 years old I'm watching this on c.n.n. Why as it happened they're all white they all white shirts string your little ties they're smoking cigars and cigarettes at work and the average age is 26 when your dad did this and a spacecraft with the lowest bidder and what the average age of engineers etc Being 26 years old and he went was there it went well it was there a sense in your dad's mind when this was going on this is crazy I got less than a 5050 chance of surviving this thing and I got a wife and I got 2 great little boys was there a sense that Neal know the danger i solute we knew the danger that all the astronauts did they were test pilots by by trade so they they were used to things going wrong but as I said every one of them was working on a different aspect of the program a different a different piece of technology a different. A different area of expertise so they all relied on each other to be the sort of the project managers for each of these areas and Bill is $400000.00 people that worked as hard as they could and none of them wanted to wanted to be the point of failure so it's just I think it speaks to the to the power of a shared common vision something that people believe in and and you know America in 1969 was just absolutely focused on making this successful and I'm grateful to every one of those people 400000 people did he understand when you talk to him and later years about the significance of that achievement and his part in it I told the story he never thought of himself as a superstar he never thought of himself as some historical great unbelievable character he was humble did he know what he had done well yeah I mean he understood what happened but again he felt like he was doing his job and that was what he was supposed to do. And and I think he also felt like all of those 400000 people deserve just as much credit for the success as he did what did he tell you about on the moon he was how much time was you know actually on the moon 2 and half hours on the moon how much time was he out of the spacecraft on the moon before he got back and. So walking or no no he was walking around for 2 and a half going to happen are they were on the surface in the capsule for longer and what did he want to tell you about those 2 and a half hours walking on the moon that he. I mean somewhat like you know what he was he always said that the dangerous part was getting on the ground and getting back off the actual E.V.A.'s was not something they were particularly concerned about they they had to take some pictures they had to collect some rocks they had to set up a couple of experiments and have a look around but but but the dangerous parts of the mission where we're you know getting getting on to the surface getting off the surface and re docking with with Mike and and the command module there was a moment when there was a toggle switch that was snapped off because one of the and maybe your dad or buzz as they left the module they snapped off a toggle switch that was critical for taking off explained that so so they have these big backpacks called E.M.U.'s that that they were that had their life support while they were. While they were doing the E.V.A.'s on the on the lunar surface and so when they either got out or probably when they got back in to the to the lunar module one of these backpacks most likely knocked off one of these switches and of all the switches in that spacecraft and there are many many switches in that spacecraft bill of all this which is the one that got damaged and knocked off was the ignition switch for lifting off of the lunar surface Oh yeah so you know fortunately buzz had a had a felt tip pen that he you know somewhere in his p.k. Or. You know somewhere in there in the lunar module there and and he was able to to use that pen to you know kind of jam it into the into the opening where the switch was and and get it to to ignite what if that didn't work. Then they would say then we'd have had a big problem and it would have stayed on the minute stayed there yeah coming back when I watch some of the c.n.n. Stuff some of their stuff it was so dramatic I couldn't stand the Hornet taking them when they came out was it as dangerous to come back from the moon as it was to go to the moon or is that the easy part. Reentry is dangerous and. Because you know you've got extreme heat right I think Kennedy said what half half the heat of the temperature of the surface of the sun or something so you got extreme heat and the shielding all has to work properly and you know there's just so many things that can go wrong. And again just just a bit of a bit of good luck and a lot of hard work and and I'm grateful for whatever you do in your life you're Neil Armstrong son. I'm very proud to be you know the son of Neil and Janet Armstrong and and and they they gave me a great they gave me a great upbringing and taught me a lot of the values that have served me well. I think you know as a young person growing up you always want to be known on your own merits and so there's there's been a you know a little bit of a struggle I think in that regard. As I've grown up but but again I'm I couldn't be more proud of my parents and this country and and I look forward to going back to the moon in 2024 I think the plans that are on the books are fantastic and we really need to make sure that we follow through on this I don't know what else to say it's an honor to have you here and it was an honor to be with the family for the film last year and a couple 3 weeks from now you're going to we're going to be celebrating something that even today people don't it's in comprehensible or what NASA and 400000 in the tip of that spear was your dad will Sonner beauty to be here as well Bill and I just hope that we as a country use this. Remember it's 50 years ago to to launch this next this next phase of space exploration Let's go back to the moon let's move on to Mars in the asteroid belt you know let's let's do that and I hope everyone is behind that I said this to my wife that somebody would have asked me on July 20th 198950 years from now where will we be on 2000 and July 20219012 be for me on Mars we're going to Venus is a bit warm but don't worry we're going to you know we're going to get Neil would not have believed how the now program is almost collapsed 50 years later we had to restart it I mean isn't that sad in a sense it is sad but but I'm I'm really optimistic I think we've got some great plans on the books we want to you know the Artemis program we want to get the next man in the 1st woman to the moon we want to set up camp there essentially bill learn how to how to mine for water there learn how to work and live in on you know on another planet with a hos
