If only Armstrong had accomplished something that made up for overshooting the runway and scraping the paint on the bottom of an experimental aircraft, perhaps then he'd be worthy of having a building at Edwards named after him. I cannot imagine what sort of act might erase the stain of that kind of universal infamy.

I mean, a dog AND a couple monkeys made it up to space right? How hard can it be? And the landing part is just falling with style.

Not sure if you are aware, but Armstrong is not famous because he just "went to space".
