Neil Armstrong's famous quote analyzed

Both he and NASA initially insisted that he said "one small step for a man," and now a new and novel study on the much-analyzed quote backs him up

Tonight on AC360: What the health care ruling means for you
Editor's note: Watch AC360° at 8 and 10 p.m. ET tonight for expert analysis on the Supreme Court's decision to uphold the individual mandate requiring people to have health insurance.
The Supreme Court's decision Thursday to uphold the Affordable Care Act means that the predictions about how it will affect Americans remain in place.

The law threatens to remove existing Medicaid funding from states that don't participate in the expansion. The high court said the government must remove that threat.
Several groups that follow the health care law closely said they were keeping an eye on the potential impact of the Medicaid ruling.

The uninsured
The decision leaves in place the so-called individual mandate - the requirement on Americans to have or buy health insurance beginning in 2014 or face a penalty - although many are exempt from that provision.
