Sweet Art Tribute Dedicated to Neil Armstrong

As you may have heard, we lost a great one this weekend as American astronaut Neil Armstrong, the first person to walk on the Moon, passed away at age 82 due to complications from a recent heart surgery. Many fellow astronauts have been tweeting about Armstrong including Buzz Aldrin, who wrote, “I know I am joined by millions of others in mourning Neil's passing — a true American hero and the best pilot I ever knew.”

21-year-old graphic designer and illustrator Nico Encarnacion, based in South Korea, created this sweet tribute writing on his blog, “You have been the reason of many a child's dreams of exploring space; to go where no man has gone before.”
