Lawmakers propose renaming NASA Ohio facility for Neil Armstrong [i]The first man on the moon could soon have a second NASA facility renamed in his memory. Lawmakers have introduced a bill to redesignate NASA's Plum Brook Station in Sandusky, Ohio, for Neil Armstrong, who was the first person to walk on the moon 50 years ago this past July. The legislation, cosponsored by Rob Portman (R-OH) and Sherrod Brown (D-OH), follows similar congressional action taken five years ago that renamed NASA's flight research center in southern California for the late Apollo 11 astronaut. "This is a fitting tribute, and a way to help ensure that future generations will be inspired by Neil Armstrong's amazing accomplishments in air and in space," said Portman in a statement.[/i]
