Question: Hvem skrev sangen take this job and shove it?

Answer: David Allan Coe

"Take This Job and Shove It" is a 1977 country music song written by David Allan Coe and popularized by Johnny Paycheck, about the bitterness of a man who has worked long and hard with no apparent reward. The song was first recorded by Paycheck on his album also titled Take This Job and Shove It. The recording hit number one on the country charts for two weeks, spending 18 weeks on the charts. It was Paycheck's only #1 hit.

Context: "Take This Job and Shove It" er en countrysang fra 1977 skrevet af David Allan Coe og populæriseret af Johnny Paycheck, der handler om bitterheden hos en mand, der har arbejdet længe og hårdt uden nogen tilsyneladende belønning.

Question: Hvem var skuespiller som james bond?

Answer: Pierce Brosnan

James Bond filmography
Seven actors in total have portrayed Bond on film. Following Connery's portrayal, David Niven, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig have assumed the role. These screen versions have retained many traits from Fleming's depiction, although some of Bond's less fashionable attitudes have been dropped, such as racism, homophobia, retaining the services of a maid, and in the more recent films, smoking. Despite playing the same character, there have been notable differences among the portrayals. Daniel Craig is the incumbent Bond in the long-running Eon series, and played the part for a fourth time in the latest film, Spectre, released in October 2015.

Context:
James Bond filmography
I alt syv skuespillere har spillet Bond på film. Efter Connerys portræt har David Niven, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan og Daniel Craig indtaget rollen. Disse filmversioner har bevaret mange træk fra Flemings skildring, selv om nogle af Bonds mindre moderne holdninger er blevet droppet, såsom racisme, homofobi, brug af en tjenestepige og i de nyere film rygning. På trods af at de spiller den samme karakter, har der været bemærkelsesværdige forskelle mellem portrætterne. Daniel Craig er den siddende Bond i den langvarige Eon-serie og spillede rollen for fjerde gang i den seneste film, Spectre, der udkom i oktober 2015.

Question: Hvem spillede i den super bowl i 2014?

Answer: Seattle Seahawks

Super Bowl XLVIII was an American football game between the American Football Conference (AFC) champion Denver Broncos and National Football Conference (NFC) champion Seattle Seahawks to decide the National Football League (NFL) champion for the 2013 season. The Seahawks defeated the Broncos 43–8, the largest margin of victory for an underdog and tied for the third largest point differential overall (35) in Super Bowl history with Super Bowl XXVII (1993). It was the first time the winning team scored over 40 points, while holding their opponent to under 10. This became the first Super Bowl victory for the Seahawks and the fifth Super Bowl loss for the Broncos, the most of any team. The game was played on February 2, 2014, at MetLife Stadium at the Meadowlands Sports Complex in East Rutherford, New Jersey, the first Super Bowl played outdoors in a cold-weather city and the first Super Bowl to be played on a February 2.

Context: Super Bowl XLVIII var en amerikansk fodboldkamp mellem Denver Broncos, mester i American Football Conference (AFC), og Seattle Seahawks, mester i National Football Conference (NFC), som skulle afgøre mesteren i National Football League (NFL) i 2013-sæsonen. Seahawks besejrede Broncos med 43-8, hvilket var den største sejrsmargin for en underdog og den tredjestørste pointdifference samlet set (35) i Super Bowl-historien sammen med Super Bowl XXVII (1993). Det var første gang, at det vindende hold scorede over 40 point, mens modstanderen blev holdt nede på under 10 point. Det blev den første Super Bowl-sejr for Seahawks og det femte Super Bowl-nederlag for Broncos, hvilket er det højeste antal for noget hold. Kampen blev spillet den 2. februar 2014 på MetLife Stadium på Meadowlands Sports Complex i East Rutherford, New Jersey, den første Super Bowl, der blev spillet udendørs i en by med koldt vejr, og den første Super Bowl, der blev spillet på en 2. februar.


Question: Hvad hedder den den onde heks fra vest?

Answer: Elphaba

In Alexander Melentyevich Volkov's 1939 novel The Wizard of the Emerald City, her given name is Bastinda. March Laumer uses this name for the witch in his novel Aunt Em and Uncle Henry in Oz. Like in the 1939 movie, she is the sister of the Wicked Witch of the East. Sherwood Smith uses this name for a new Wicked Witch of the West in her 2005 book The Emerald Wand of Oz.
Gregory Maguire's September 1996 revisionist novel Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West takes the familiar Oz story and inverts it, with the Wicked Witch (given the name Elphaba in homage to L. Frank Baum) as the novel's protagonist and Dorothy as a hapless child. The name is retained in the musical Wicked.
In the novel The Unknown Witches of Oz, the Wicked Witch of the West is named Old Snarl-Spats.
In the comic book series Grimm Fairy Tales presents Oz, the Wicked Witch of the West is named Lynessa.

Context:
I Alexander Melentyevich Volkovs roman Troldmanden fra Smaragdbyen fra 1939 er hendes fornavn Bastinda. March Laumer bruger dette navn til heksen i sin roman Tante Em og onkel Henry i Oz. Ligesom i filmen fra 1939 er hun søster til den onde heks fra Østen. Sherwood Smith bruger dette navn til en ny Wicked Witch of the West i sin bog The Emerald Wand of Oz fra 2005.
Gregory Maguires revisionistiske roman Wicked fra september 1996: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West" tager den velkendte Oz-historie og vender den om, idet den onde heks (der får navnet Elphaba som en hyldest til L. Frank Baum) er romanens hovedperson og Dorothy er et ulykkeligt barn. Navnet er bibeholdt i musicalen Wicked.
I romanen The Unknown Witches of Oz hedder den onde heks fra Vesten Old Snarl-Spats.
I tegneserien Grimm Fairy Tales presents Oz hedder Wicked Witch of the West Lynessa.

Question: Hvad er navnet på kamæleonen i to på flugt - et hårrejsende eventyr?

Answer: Pascal

Pascal and Maximus first appear in Tangled (2010). Introduced as the pet and best friend of Rapunzel, Pascal is a chameleon who lives with Rapunzel in Mother Gothel's secluded tower. Although Rapunzel pretends to be happy living in isolation under Gothel's strict, controlling parenting, Pascal refuses to hide his discontent. Meanwhile, Maximus and thief Flynn Rider share a bitter animosity; as a police horse, Maximus is determined to arrest Flynn Rider for stealing a crown. Seeking refuge from Maximus, Flynn hides in Gothel's tower where he is quickly incapacitated by Rapunzel, and he and Pascal immediately adopt a love-hate relationship. Determined to see the mysterious "floating lights" in time for her eighteenth birthday, Rapunzel agrees to return Flynn's crown to him only after he escorts her to safely to the kingdom. Meanwhile, Maximus, who continues his search for Flynn, inadvertently tips off Gothel that Rapunzel, on whose magical hair she relies to stay alive, has left the tower accompanied by Flynn. With her life in danger, she desperately pursues them.

Context:
Pascal and Maximus
Pascal og Maximus optræder første gang i Tangled (2010). Pascal, der introduceres som Rapunzels kæledyr og bedste ven, er en kamæleon, der bor sammen med Rapunzel i Moder Gothels afsondrede tårn. Selv om Rapunzel lader som om hun er glad for at leve i isolation under Gothels strenge og kontrollerende opdragelse, nægter Pascal at skjule sin utilfredshed. I mellemtiden deler Maximus og tyven Flynn Rider et bittert fjendskab; som politihest er Maximus fast besluttet på at anholde Flynn Rider for at stjæle en krone. Flynn søger tilflugt fra Maximus og gemmer sig i Gothels tårn, hvor han hurtigt bliver gjort ukampdygtig af Rapunzel, og han og Pascal indleder straks et had-kærlighedsforhold. Rapunzel er fast besluttet på at se de mystiske "svævende lys" i tide til sin 18-års fødselsdag og går derfor med til at aflevere Flynns krone tilbage til ham, hvis han først eskorterer hende sikkert til kongeriget. I mellemtiden giver Maximus, der fortsætter sin søgen efter Flynn, uforvarende Gothel et tip om, at Rapunzel, hvis magiske hår hun er afhængig af for at holde sig i live, har forladt tårnet sammen med Flynn. Hun er i livsfare og forfølger dem desperat.

Question: Hvad er navnene på de store søer i michigan?

Answer: Lake Michigan

Though the five lakes lie in separate basins, they form a single, naturally interconnected body of fresh water, within the Great Lakes Basin. They form a chain connecting the east-central interior of North America to the Atlantic Ocean. From the interior to the outlet at the Saint Lawrence River, water flows from Superior to Huron and Michigan, southward to Erie, and finally northward to Lake Ontario. The lakes drain a large watershed via many rivers, and are studded with approximately 35,000 islands. There are also several thousand smaller lakes, often called "inland lakes," within the basin. The surface area of the five primary lakes combined is roughly equal to the size of the United Kingdom, while the surface area of the entire basin (the lakes and the land they drain) is about the size of the UK and France combined. Lake Michigan is the only one of the Great Lakes that is located entirely within the United States; the others form a water boundary between the United States and Canada. The lakes are divided among the jurisdictions of the Canadian province of Ontario and the U.S. states of Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York. Both Ontario and Michigan include in their boundaries portions of four of the lakes: Ontario does not border Lake Michigan, and Michigan does not border Lake Ontario. New York and Wisconsin's jurisdictions extend into two lakes, and each of the remaining states into one of the lakes.

Context: Selv om de fem søer ligger i forskellige bassiner, udgør de et enkelt, naturligt forbundet ferskvandsområde i Great Lakes Basin. De udgør en kæde, der forbinder det østlige og centrale indre af Nordamerika med Atlanterhavet. Fra det indre af landet til udløbet ved Saint Lawrence-floden strømmer vandet fra Superior til Huron og Michigan, sydpå til Erie og endelig nordpå til Ontariosøen. Søerne afvander et stort afvandingsområde via mange floder og er spækket med ca. 35 000 øer. Der er også flere tusinde mindre søer, ofte kaldet "indlandssøer", i afvandingsområdet. De fem vigtigste søers overfladeareal tilsammen svarer til størrelsen af Det Forenede Kongerige, mens hele bassinet (søerne og det land, de afvander) tilsammen er på størrelse med Det Forenede Kongerige og Frankrig tilsammen. Michigansøen er den eneste af de store søer, der ligger helt inden for USA; de andre udgør en vandgrænse mellem USA og Canada. Søerne er fordelt på jurisdiktionerne i den canadiske provins Ontario og de amerikanske stater Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania og New York. Både Ontario og Michigan omfatter dele af fire af søerne i deres grænser: Ontario grænser ikke op til Lake Michigan, og Michigan grænser ikke op til Lake Ontario. New Yorks og Wisconsinsons jurisdiktion strækker sig ind i to søer, og hver af de resterende stater ind i en af søerne.

Question: Hvornår blev den original film charlie og chokoladefabrikken lavet?

Answer: 1971

Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory is a 1971 American musical fantasy film directed by Mel Stuart, and starring Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka. It is an adaptation of the 1964 novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl. Dahl was credited with writing the film's screenplay; however, David Seltzer, who went uncredited in the film, was brought in to re-work the screenplay against Dahl's wishes, making major changes to the ending and adding musical numbers. These changes and other decisions made by the director led Dahl to disown the film.

Context:
Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory
Willy Wonka og chokoladefabrikken er en amerikansk musical-fantasyfilm fra 1971, instrueret af Mel Stuart, med Gene Wilder i hovedrollen som Willy Wonka. Det er en filmatisering af romanen Charlie og chokoladefabrikken fra 1964 af Roald Dahl. Dahl blev krediteret for at have skrevet filmens manuskript; David Seltzer, som ikke blev krediteret i filmen, blev dog sat til at omarbejde manuskriptet mod Dahls ønske, idet han foretog store ændringer i slutningen og tilføjede musikalske numre. Disse ændringer og andre beslutninger, som instruktøren traf, fik Dahl til at afvise filmen.


Question: Der spillede mamma i throw momma from the train?

Answer: Anne Ramsey

Throw Momma from the Train
Novelist Larry Donner (Billy Crystal) struggles with writer's block due to his resentment towards his ex-wife Margaret (Kate Mulgrew), who stole his book and garnered mainstream success and critical acclaim with it. Owen Lift (Danny DeVito) is a timid, middle-aged fellow who still lives with his overbearing, abusive and paranoid mother (Anne Ramsey). Owen fantasizes about killing his mother but can't summon the courage to bring his desires into fruition. As a student in Larry's community college writing class, Owen is given advice by Larry to view an Alfred Hitchcock film to gain some insight into plot development for his mystery stories. He sees Strangers on a Train, in which two strangers conspire to commit a murder for each other, figuring their lack of connection to the victim will, in theory, establish a perfect alibi. Having overheard Larry's public rant that he wished his ex-wife dead, Owen forms a plan to kill Margaret, believing that Larry will, in return, kill his mother.

Context:
Throw Momma from the Train
Romanforfatteren Larry Donner (Billy Crystal) kæmper med skriveblokering på grund af sin vrede over for sin ekskone Margaret (Kate Mulgrew), som stjal hans bog og fik stor succes og kritikerroser med den. Owen Lift (Danny DeVito) er en sky, midaldrende fyr, der stadig bor sammen med sin dominerende, voldelige og paranoide mor (Anne Ramsey). Owen fantaserer om at slå sin mor ihjel, men kan ikke samle mod til at føre sine ønsker ud i livet. Som studerende i Larrys skrivekursus på en folkeskole får Owen et råd fra Larry om at se en Alfred Hitchcock-film for at få et indblik i plotudviklingen til sine krimiforfattere. Han ser Strangers on a Train, hvor to fremmede konspirerer om at begå et mord for hinanden, idet han regner med, at deres manglende forbindelse til offeret i teorien vil give dem et perfekt alibi. Efter at have overhørt Larrys offentlige skældsord om, at han ønskede sin ekskone død, udtænker Owen en plan om at dræbe Margaret og tror, at Larry til gengæld vil dræbe hans mor.

Question: Hvilken bil var dukes of hazzard bil?

Answer: Dodge Charger

General Lee (car)
The General Lee (sometimes referred to as simply "the General") is the name given to a 1969 Dodge Charger driven in the television series The Dukes of Hazzard by the Duke boys, Bo and Luke, along with cousins Coy and Vance (in season 5). It is known for its signature horn, its police chases, stunts—especially its long jumps—and for having its doors welded shut, leaving the Dukes to climb in and out through the windows. The car appears in every episode but one ("Mary Kaye's Baby"). The car's name is a reference to American Civil War general Robert E. Lee. It bears a Confederate flag (a rectangular variant of the square battle flag of Lee's Army of Northern Virginia) on its roof, and also has a horn which plays the first twelve notes of the song "Dixie".

Context:
General Lee (car)
General Lee (nogle gange kaldet "General") er navnet på en Dodge Charger fra 1969, der blev kørt i tv-serien The Dukes of Hazzard af Duke-drengene Bo og Luke samt fætrene Coy og Vance (i sæson 5). Den er kendt for sit signaturhorn, sine politijagter, stunts - især de lange spring - og for at have dørene svejset til, så Dukes-folkene kunne kravle ind og ud gennem vinduerne. Bilen optræder i alle afsnit undtagen ét ("Mary Kaye's Baby"). Bilens navn er en reference til den amerikanske borgerkrigsgeneral Robert E. Lee. Den bærer et konføderationsflag (en rektangulær variant af det firkantede slagflag fra Lees hær i det nordlige Virginia) på taget og har også et horn, der spiller de første tolv toner af sangen "Dixie".


Question: Hvem synger keep on rollin with the flow?

Answer: Charlie Rich

"Rollin' with the Flow" is a song, released in 1977, by American country music artist Charlie Rich. The single was his eighth Number One on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles charts. "Rollin' with the Flow" also crossed over into the top-40 of the adult contemporary music charts and narrowly missed the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 101 on the Bubbling Under the Hot 100 chart.

Context: "Rollin' with the Flow" er en sang, udgivet i 1977, af den amerikanske countrymusikkunstner Charlie Rich. Singlen blev hans ottende nummer et på den amerikanske Billboard Hot Country Singles-liste. "Rollin' with the Flow" gik også over i top-40 på hitlisterne for voksenmusik og missede med nød og næppe Billboard Hot 100 med en topplacering som nummer 101 på Bubbling Under the Hot 100-listen.

Question: Hvornår startede michael jordan først med at spille basketball?

Answer: 1984

Michael Jordan
Jordan played three seasons for coach Dean Smith at the University of North Carolina. As a freshman, he was a member of the Tar Heels' national championship team in 1982. Jordan joined the Bulls in 1984 as the third overall draft pick. He quickly emerged as a league star, entertaining crowds with his prolific scoring. His leaping ability, demonstrated by performing slam dunks from the free throw line in slam dunk contests, earned him the nicknames Air Jordan and His Airness. He also gained a reputation for being one of the best defensive players in basketball. In 1991, he won his first NBA championship with the Bulls, and followed that achievement with titles in 1992 and 1993, securing a "three-peat". Although Jordan abruptly retired from basketball before the beginning of the 1993–94 NBA season and started a new career playing minor league baseball, he returned to the Bulls in March 1995 and led them to three additional championships in 1996, 1997, and 1998, as well as a then-record 72 regular-season wins in the 1995–96 NBA season. Jordan retired for a second time in January 1999, but returned for two more NBA seasons from 2001 to 2003 as a member of the Wizards.

Context:
Michael Jordan
Jordan spillede tre sæsoner for træner Dean Smith på University of North Carolina. Som førsteårsstuderende var han medlem af Tar Heels' hold, der vandt det nationale mesterskab i 1982. Jordan kom til Bulls i 1984 som det tredje samlede valg i draften. Han blev hurtigt en stjerne i ligaen og underholdt publikum med sine mange scoringer. Hans springfærdigheder, som han demonstrerede ved at udføre slam dunks fra frikastlinjen i slam dunk-konkurrencer, gav ham øgenavnene Air Jordan og His Airness. Han fik også et ry for at være en af de bedste forsvarsspillere i basketball. I 1991 vandt han sit første NBA-mesterskab med Bulls, og han fulgte den præstation op med titler i 1992 og 1993 og sikrede sig dermed et "three-peat". Selv om Jordan pludselig trak sig tilbage fra basketball før begyndelsen af NBA-sæsonen 1993-94 og startede en ny karriere som baseballspiller i en mindre liga, vendte han tilbage til Bulls i marts 1995 og førte dem til yderligere tre mesterskaber i 1996, 1997 og 1998 samt en daværende rekord på 72 sejre i den regulære sæson i NBA-sæsonen 1995-96. Jordan trak sig tilbage for anden gang i januar 1999, men vendte tilbage i yderligere to NBA-sæsoner fra 2001 til 2003 som medlem af Wizards.

Question: Hvem spiller dallas cowboys imod på thanksgiving day?

NFL on Thanksgiving Day
Conversely, the Dallas Cowboys, who typically represent a larger television draw, have had much fewer public calls to be replaced on Thanksgiving. One issue that has been debated is a perceived unfair advantage of playing at home on Thanksgiving. The advantage is given in the form of an extra day of practice for the home team while the road team has to travel to the game site. This is true for most Thursday games, but with the night games, the visitor can travel to the game site after practice and hold the final walk-thru the following morning.

Context:
NFL on Thanksgiving Day
Omvendt har Dallas Cowboys, som typisk er et større tv-træk, haft langt færre offentlige opfordringer til at blive erstattet på Thanksgiving. Et af de spørgsmål, der er blevet diskuteret, er den uretfærdige fordel ved at spille hjemme på Thanksgiving. Fordelen gives i form af en ekstra træningsdag for hjemmeholdet, mens udeholdet skal rejse til spillestedet. Dette gælder for de fleste torsdagskampe, men i forbindelse med aftenkampe kan gæsterne rejse til spillestedet efter træningen og holde den endelige gennemgang den følgende morgen.

Question: Hvem synger jeg er let som søndag formiddag?

Answer: Commodores

Easy (Commodores song)
Written by Commodores lead singer Lionel Richie, the song is a slow ballad expressing a man's feelings as he ends a relationship. Rather than being depressed about the break-up, he states that he is instead "easy like Sunday morning"—something which Richie described as evocative of "small Southern towns that die at 11:30pm" on a Saturday night, such as his own Tuskegee, Alabama.

Context:
Easy (Commodores song)
Sangen er skrevet af Commodores' forsanger Lionel Richie og er en langsom ballade, der udtrykker en mands følelser, når han afslutter et forhold. I stedet for at være deprimeret over bruddet siger han, at han i stedet er "let som søndag morgen" - noget Richie beskrev som en hentydning til "små sydstatsbyer, der dør kl. 23.30" en lørdag aften, som f.eks. hans egen Tuskegee, Alabama.

Question: Hvem er den indiens 16. premiereminister?

List of Prime Ministers of India
Since 1947, India has had fourteen Prime Ministers, fifteen including Gulzarilal Nanda who twice acted in the role. The first was Jawaharlal Nehru of the Indian National Congress party, who was sworn-in on 15 August 1947, when India gained independence from the British. Serving until his death in May 1964, Nehru remains India's longest-serving prime minister. He was succeeded by fellow Congressman Lal Bahadur Shastri, whose 19-month term also ended in death. Indira Gandhi, Nehru's daughter, succeeded Shastri in 1966 to become the country's first woman premier. Eleven years later, she was voted out of power in favour of the Janata Party, whose leader Morarji Desai became the first non-Congress prime minister. After he resigned in 1979, his former deputy Charan Singh briefly held office until Indira Gandhi was voted back six months later. Indira Gandhi's second stint as Prime Minister ended five years later on the morning of 31 October 1984, when she was gunned down by her own bodyguards. That evening, her son Rajiv Gandhi was sworn-in as India's youngest premier, and the third from his family. Thus far, members of Nehru–Gandhi dynasty have been Prime Minister for a total of 37 years and 303 days.

Context:
List of Prime Ministers of India
Siden 1947 har Indien haft fjorten premierministre, femten, herunder Gulzarilal Nanda, som to gange har haft denne rolle. Den første var Jawaharlal Nehru fra partiet Indian National Congress, som blev taget i ed den 15. august 1947, da Indien blev uafhængigt af briterne. Nehru sad indtil sin død i maj 1964 og er stadig Indiens længst siddende premierminister. Han blev efterfulgt af kongresmedlemmet Lal Bahadur Shastri, hvis 19 måneder lange mandatperiode også endte med døden. Indira Gandhi, Nehrus datter, efterfulgte Shastri i 1966 og blev landets første kvindelige premierminister. Elleve år senere blev hun stemt fra magten til fordel for Janata Party, hvis leder Morarji Desai blev den første premierminister uden for Kongressen. Efter at han trådte tilbage i 1979, var hans tidligere stedfortræder Charan Singh kortvarigt på posten, indtil Indira Gandhi blev stemt tilbage seks måneder senere. Indira Gandhis anden periode som premierminister sluttede fem år senere om morgenen den 31. oktober 1984, da hun blev skudt ned af sine egne bodyguards. Samme aften blev hendes søn Rajiv Gandhi taget i ed som Indiens yngste premierminister og den tredje fra sin familie. Indtil videre har medlemmer af Nehru-Gandhi-dynastiet været premierminister i i alt 37 år og 303 dage.


Question: Hvornår landede apollo 11 på månen?

Answer: 20. juli 1969

Apollo 11 was the spaceflight that landed the first two humans on the Moon. Mission commander Neil Armstrong and pilot Buzz Aldrin, both American, landed the lunar module Eagle on July 20, 1969, at 20:18 UTC. Armstrong became the first to step onto the lunar surface six hours after landing on July 21 at 02:56:15 UTC; Aldrin joined him about 20 minutes later. They spent about two and a quarter hours together outside the spacecraft, and collected 47.5 pounds (21.5 kg) of lunar material to bring back to Earth. Michael Collins piloted the command module Columbia alone in lunar orbit while they were on the Moon's surface. Armstrong and Aldrin spent just under a day on the lunar surface before rejoining Columbia in lunar orbit.

Context: Apollo 11 var den rumflyvning, hvor de to første mennesker landede på Månen. Missionskommandør Neil Armstrong og pilot Buzz Aldrin, begge amerikanere, landede månemodulet Eagle den 20. juli 1969 kl. 20:18 UTC. Armstrong blev den første til at træde ned på månens overflade seks timer efter landingen den 21. juli kl. 02:56:15 UTC; Aldrin sluttede sig til ham ca. 20 minutter senere. De tilbragte ca. to og en kvart time sammen uden for rumfartøjet og indsamlede 21,5 kg (47,5 pund) månemateriale, som de tog med tilbage til Jorden. Michael Collins styrede kommandomodulet Columbia alene i månebanen, mens de var på Månens overflade. Armstrong og Aldrin tilbragte knap et døgn på månens overflade, inden de gik tilbage til Columbia i månens kredsløb.
