PARIS – Neil Armstrong has died at the age of 82. The American astronaut was not only the pride of the U.S. space program, he was the first earthling to touch the planet’s only moon. As such, the whole world — or at least its major press outlets — reacted largely in unison to Armstrong’s death. Here is a small sampling of the global coverage:
DIE WELT (Germany)
LIBERATION (France)
ASAHI SHIMBUN (Japan)
FOLHA DE S. PAULO (Brazil)
