Buzz Aldrin in Apollo 11
According to the BBC, as part of the Apollo 11 mission, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin were the first humans to set foot on the moon in 1969. This historic event was observed by an estimated 600 million people across the world.
After what seemed like only a moment, Buzz Aldrin became one of the most well-known people in the world.
Aldrin had previously served in the United States Air Force as a fighter pilot during the Korean War before becoming recognized for his role in the moon landing.
The retired American astronaut also established the Human SpaceFlight Institute in 2018, a nonprofit research organization.
As per CBS, in fulfillment of a pledge made by the late President John F. Kennedy to send a manned crew to the moon and safely return them to Earth, Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin made their historic walk on the lunar surface on July 20, 1969.
This was the first time humans had set foot on another celestial body. Michael Collins filled the role of the third crew member on the ship.
