You call that an “Official Anniversary Celebration”?

No.

You call that an “Official Anniversary Celebration”?
When NASA holds a Niel Armstrong night, a Buzz Aldrin night, or even just an official First Moon Landing night, then I’ll change my view. But not until. I notice that there were official pronouncements and even a couple of speaches from HQ regarding Yuri’s Night, but I looked in vain for anything similiar coming from HQ on July 20, or even July 21 (Monday); nada.

...for YEARS I have looked for any kind of official anniversary acknowledgement at all, any kind of acknowledgement, from all the space bloggers... You haven't been looking very hard.

Chuck2200:

Perhaps the powers-that-be are seeking to avoid comparisons between their current lunar-centric architecture and their former lunar-centric architecture.

Anniversary this, anniversary that, etc, etc. NASA is going to be 50 years old and we are expected to remember that. Why?

Every year we celebrate Yuri’s night – first man in space.
But for YEARS I have looked for any kind of official anniversary acknowledgement at all, any kind of acknowledgement, from all the space bloggers and especially from NASA for the event that occurred on July 20, 1969. The fact that the bloggers are silent every year is sad. But the fact that NASA is silent makes me sick.
