![Six out of seven times we landed successfully [on the Moon]. I wanted to be a part of that and I was a part of that, so my personal feeling is of great gratefulness for having somehow been in a position to have been given the opportunity to be on that first landing.

So I'm very thankful, and I asked the whole world to give thanks once we successfully landed.](/assets/img/quote-photos/six-out-of-seven-times-we-landed-successfully-on-the-moon-i-wanted-to-be-a-par.jpg)
