| Neal Armstrong, center, was one of several Project Gemini astronauts to visit the Middle River plant to get a closer look at the Titan II rocket that would lift them into space. Mr. Armstrong had considered an invitation to be part of the Gemini symposium at the museum last fall, but a family commitment prevented him from accepting. The first man to step foot on the moon as part of Apollo 11 died on August 25. |
