A sad day to be sure. The world has lost a great but humble man, who achieved a lot in his life apart from being the first person to walk on the Moon. He: was a US Navy fighter pilot; was a NASA test pilot who flew the X-15 rocket plane; commanded and survived the Gemini 8 mission; was a university professor; and headed the investigation into the "Challenger" accident.

He was apparently also a very good piano player.
