The movie depicts lunar terrain as incredibly rugged with sheer crater walls and cliffs. In one scene Armstrong stands on the brink of a crater that looks like a deep, dark, well. In fact slopes on the Moon are very gentle, almost never greater than 35 degrees, due to lack of wind and water erosive processes. Aside from rocks and boulders (which Armstron had to avoid while landing), the lunar terrain has a smooth appearance thanks to sandblasting by micro-meteoroids for billions of years.
