According to this it was the first word said at touchdown: YouTube link 1) Is that true though? Is that what the lunar landing transcripts of that exact second show? 2) And what do you think will be the first word uttered at the moment we touchdown on Mars? Dan PS. And, if Vox' account of history is to believed here, who would have thought that a code abbreviation ("Oll Korrect") from society snobs in Boston would end up spreading so far and wide after it was first published in 1839! |

If my vacations are any indicator, the first words were "are we there yet?" |

Okay is the most understood word in the world. I always thought the first word on the moon was okay |

The first words uttered at the moment we touchdown on Mars will be, "Take me to your leader." |

I think the words were "Let's get out of this shithole", but I may be wrong. |

I believe one of the other astronauts suggested: "What the hell is that, followed by a scream, and then cut the microphone". |

"Pass the Dos Equis!" (keeping it interesante), to celebrate, before they climbed out the hatch, and took a walk on the moon, where they placed a six-pack for posterity, and all mankind. |

Well, you wouldn't be able to hear it if they did. |

If that is what was on the cue card, that is what was said. |
