Description: Aerial photograph showing the Armstrong Air and Space Museum in Wapakoneta, Ohio. The museum opened to the public July 20, 1972, honoring Neil Armstrong, a Wapakoneta native and the first man to set foot on the moon. The museum is part of the historic site network of the Ohio History Connection. The image was submitted by photographer Thomas F. Root of Plymouth, Ohio, in the Professional category of the Spirit of Ohio Bicentennial Photo Contest. Root provided the following caption on the photograph's reverse: "Like the Moon rising, the Neil Armstrong Air and Space Museum at Wapakoneta, Ohio, commemorates the first man to set foot on the moon, Buckeye Neil Armstrong. No man so far has ever traveled further from his birthplace." In August 1976, the Ohio American Revolution Bicentennial Advisory Committee (OARBAC) began the Spirit of Ohio Bicentennial Photo Contest as part of a larger effort in Ohio to celebrate the 1976 American Bicentennial. The contest was meant to document "the spirit and character of the people and places which represent Ohio during [the] bicentennial year," and to create a permanent photographic archive of the year's festivity for use by future researchers. Both professional and amateur photographers submitted over 500 photographs for consideration, all taken within the state between January 1 and December 31, 1976. View on Ohio Memory.
