When Apollo 11 touched down on the Moon’s surface in 1969, the first man on the Moon became a legend. In First Man, author James R. Hansen explores the life of Neil Armstrong. Based on over fifty hours of interviews with the intensely private Armstrong, who also gave Hansen exclusive access to private documents and family sources, this “magnificent panorama of the second half of the American twentieth century” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) is an unparalleled biography of an American icon.
In this “compelling and nuanced portrait” (Chicago Tribune) filled with revelations, Hansen vividly recreates Armstrong’s career in flying, from his seventy-eight combat missions as a naval aviator flying over North Korea to his formative trans-atmospheric flights in the rocket-powered X-15 to his piloting Gemini VIII to the first-ever docking in space. For a pilot who cared more about flying to the Moon than he did about walking on it, Hansen asserts, Armstrong’s storied vocation exacted a dear personal toll, paid in kind by his wife and children. For the near-fifty years since the Moon landing, rumors have swirled around Armstrong concerning his dreams of space travel, his religious beliefs, and his private life.
A penetrating exploration of American hero worship, Hansen addresses the complex legacy of the First Man, as an astronaut and as an individual. “First Man burrows deep into Armstrong’s past and present…What emerges is an earnest and brave man” (Houston Chronicle) who will forever be known as history’s most famous space traveler.

不管一个人对航天航空多陌生,加加林和阿姆斯特朗的名字总还是听说过的。近来喜欢上载人航天以后才发现原来Armstrong是这么迷的一个人? 一些散散的笔记: 很多宇航员最早是测试机飞行员出身,刻板印象大概是技高人胆大的热血男儿,向往天空向往飞翔。然而Armstrong其实最早志... (展开)

真的一部完整的传记,所以前半段就显得有点啰嗦。最好笑的是三位NASA飞行员连续在同一个机场出现降落事故(后面两位还是先后来救援的),让机场长官彻底崩溃。电影里让我很感动的Neil的朋友同事们接连意外事故中去世的片段,书上其实并非那么连续,就,觉得还好。然后也没有把小女儿的去世摆在像电影那么高的位置上。书里还详细描写了Neil非自愿与Buzz竞争谁当第一人的整个过程。Neil是那么平静内敛的一个人,... 真的一部完整的传记,所以前半段就显得有点啰嗦。最好笑的是三位NASA飞行员连续在同一个机场出现降落事故(后面两位还是先后来救援的),让机场长官彻底崩溃。电影里让我很感动的Neil的朋友同事们接连意外事故中去世的片段,书上其实并非那么连续,就,觉得还好。然后也没有把小女儿的去世摆在像电影那么高的位置上。书里还详细描写了Neil非自愿与Buzz竞争谁当第一人的整个过程。Neil是那么平静内敛的一个人,后半生却很大程度上被盛名所累,如果有机会让他重选一次,我想他很可能想让给Buzz,但这也是NASA选他做第一人的原因吧…… (展开)

电影改编得很有气质,同时很忠于传记的史实。Ed和Neil确实是邻居也是好友,Ed等人被烧死在驾驶舱的那天Neil是在白宫,“时针走向午夜,那天也是Karen的忌日”。跟苏联抢时间、机舱的缺陷等对NASA的深入度也令人印象深刻
