Juuust a bit outside!
I think you have it. Thanks for the reply!
Armstrong had to take over manual landing control when the guidance computer overloaded. He could clearly see the original landing area was strewn with boulders and craters. He had to choose another landing site and was very close to running out of fuel. You will hear CapCom tensely say "30 seconds" of fuel remaining before they landed. Mission Control was holding its breath collectively. Even Buzz Aldrin was telling Armstrong to set it down. I think Armstrong's heart rate was nominal considering the circumstances.
That would make sense. Thank You.
