Interview | Buzz Aldrin: "Before you evaluate the reality of Buzz Aldrin in the flesh and sitting across the table from you, you have to think about who he is. Who he -- for as long, certainly, as I can remember -- has always been. He is, before anything else, one of the select. One of the few. One of a handful of people -- perhaps a dozen, at most -- on this celestial body who, to our knowledge, has set foot on another. On July 20, 1969, Buzz Aldrin became the second man to walk on the moon, following crew mate Neil Armstrong by less than half an hour."
