On utilise aujourd'hui cette formule en référence aux mots d'Armstrong pour mettre en contraste le caractère apparemment anodin d'un phénomène et l'ampleur de son effet, comme it's a small step for nanotechnology but a giant leap forward for computers ("c'est un petit pas pour la nanotechnologie mais un pas de géant pour les ordinateurs"). -
