Find the original audio of Neil Armstrong's moon landing quote.

I found the audio file titled 'Apollo 11: One Small Step'. It's a historical recording from July 20, 1969, featuring Neil Armstrong's famous quote: 'That's one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind.'

Show me some NASA patents related to robotics.

NASA holds numerous robotics patents available for licensing. Notable ones include a 'Robotic Gripper with Tactile Feedback' developed for the ISS, and a 'Tendon-Driven Anthropomorphic Robotic Hand' from JPL.

Most NASA images are in the public domain and free for commercial use. Some images from partner agencies (ESA, JAXA) may have restrictions — check the copyright field in the metadata.
