Unearthed letters to Neil Armstrong reveal details on the astronaut's life

Some of those interactions are compiled in a new book, “Dear Neil Armstrong,” and could reveal a lot about Armstrong and even ourselves. Jeff Glor speaks to James Hansen, Armstrong’s official biographer who spent years going through the trove of letters.
