Did Neil Armstrong say, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”?

That’s what it sounds like on the tape that was recorded at 10:56 P.M. (EST) on July 20, 1969.

But what he intended to say was, “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.”

The a was somehow lost in the transmission.
