(CNN) -- Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon, has died, his family said Saturday. He was 82.

I will always remember as a child staying awake to watch you take those first steps onto the lunar surface.
RIP, Mission Commander Armstrong, you are now and forever among the stars. Thank you for inspiring humanity to look beyond what they could only see from their window.
