It was my understanding that while he planned to say "One small step for a man ..." he accidentally said "One small step for man ..."
it sounds better that way, no? i guess maybe because we know the saying that way. i'm not sure, but that makes sense because it seriously differs in every thing i read. some say a man, some say man, and a lot say [a] man.
so let's executively say it's, "One small step for man..."
