A little history/geography quiz

I guess nobody is going to take a stab at the pi question, so cgm thanks for even trying haha, it was indiana by the way, in 1898 the state house approved a bill that would change the official value of pi, but the bill failed in the senate. As to why they did this I don't remember I'm going by memory here.

I think the better question is how? I mean, can't see how it can be changed. Maybe it could be shortened to create a universally fixed number for it, like..."Today, the state of Indiana officially makes pi 3.142!"

Exactly. Maybe they should have tried to ban negative numbers instead.

X, all of your answers are correct except the number of the mission. Also, there was a third astronaut who stayed behind on the mother ship while Armstrong and Aldrin descended to the moon. You are good at this, so here's some more for you.

What was the type of booster rocket used for this mission?
What was the nickname of the Lunar Module. What was the famous phrase that was coined when the module landed on the moon.

And last but not least, a real toughie. Aside from his famous mankind remark, Neil Armstrong is also said to have uttered the phrase "Good luck, Mr. Gorsky". This is well documented story, and not a figment of my imagination. However, there is some doubt as to whether or not Neil actually said these words. Anyways, the question is: What is the significance of the phrase, "Good Luck Mr. Gorsky".

Easy peasy ... the booster was the giant Saturn V rockets, the module was the eagle (as in the eagle has l;anded) and Mr gorsky was Armstromgs childhood neighbour. Allegedly he overheard his wife denying him a blowjob until 'the kid next door walks on the moon'. Probably an urban legend, but a good one nonetheless.
