Astronaut Neil Armstrong, commander of the historic Apollo 11 mission, stands outside the lunar module called “Eagle” during the July 20, 1969, moon landing.

Because Mr. Armstrong took most of the photos as the astronauts worked on the lunar surface, this is one of the few showing Mr. Armstrong on the moon.
