The first words said upon landing on the moon were
"Contact light. Okay, engine stop. ACA out of detent.
Modes control both auto, descent engine command override, off.
Engine arm off. 413 is in."
Then from Mission Control: "We copy you down, Eagle."
Eagle: "Houston, Tranquility Base here, the Eagle has landed."
