In this Sept. 5, 1969 file photo, Apollo 11 astronaut Neil Armstrong, right, stands with his family after arriving at his parents' home in Wapakoneta, Ohio. This is his first trip home since his historic walk on the moon. With him from left are, Stephen Armstrong, father; Neil's wife, Janet; his mother, and two children, Mark, left, 6, and Eric, 12. A big homecoming celebration was planned for the next day. Armstrong left NASA two years after Apollo 11 and taught engineering at the University of Cincinnati until 1979. He spent his remaining years in his home state of Ohio.
