Neil Armstrong To Be Honored By NASA At National Cathedral
NASA Administrator Charles Bolden and other dignitaries will attend a public memorial service at the Washington National Cathedral to honor the life and career of astronaut Neil Armstrong on Thursday, Sept. 13. The memorial will be broadcast live on NASA Television and streamed online by the agency’s and National Cathedral’s websites.
The service is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. EDT at the historic cathedral, which is known as the spiritual home for the nation.
