Did Neil Armstrong say, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”?

by
did neil armstrong say thats one small step for man one giant leap for mankind

That’s what it sounds like on the tape that was recorded at 10:56 P.M. (EST) on July 20, 1969.

But what he intended to say was, “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.”

The a was somehow lost in the transmission.
