March 16: WhotheWhatheWherethe - Identify this image?

[steve.ledger]

Based on a suggestion I've chosen a historical topic for this weeks WWW image.

Q: Where did this person go, who was he with when he got there and on which date did he arrive??

*I've not asked for this persons name because if you answer the above, you will obviously know this

[zaphodeist]

Ha! Almost, but not quite, totally unlike any carbon based life-form

Pure guess (gotta be really )

Moon >> Aldrin >> July 20 1969

Lexington, Midnight,His companionDawes (Paul Revere?)

Or---- Jerusalem, Palm Sunday, his disciples.

Thanks Ankhor..
Not the moon.

Norman, John, Hans - all good tries

Just to help everyone a bit, the image needs three answers:

[1] Where did this person go
[2] Who was he with when he got there
[3] On which date did he arrive??

The clue to these will be revealed to you once you identify the image itself.

Remember, this is a well known Historical event

[1] Where did this person go
[2] Who was he with when he got there
[3] On which date did he arrive??

1. "The Main Office".
2. A son.
3. Saturday, 20 January, 2001.

That is my best guess. Pretty tricky at this point...
