NASA's American Hero Buzz Aldrin is turning 82 today. The second man on the moon is barely recognized by the general public, but his pictures on the moon are quite well known.
Retired from NASA and militar duty, Buzz is in charge now of Spacecraft Enterprise, a firm in California that works on the planning of space programs. Because this man is a lot more than just the second man on the moon. He's a brilliant rocket scientist. He has designed a permanent space station, improved the technology of common rockets saving millions of dollars to NASA, and even created ShareSpace, a foundation that views the affordable and accessible means of space traveling, making it possible for everyone, of course this is a future plan, but it's a great idea.
His participations in Gemini 12 and Apollo 11 missions granted his American Hero status and I must say, he is a man of luck. I would have given almost anything to be in his place. Can you imagine what is must feel like to be walking on the moon?
Our birthday boy was the one who inspired the guys from Disney
Pixar to name the Toy Story's austronaut as BuzzLightyear, and also gave the character some caracteristics of our dear lunar man.
