THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH
Buzz Aldrin was a part of the Apollo 11 mission in 1969 when man first walked on
the moon. Neil Armstrong went first, followed by Buzz. Nothing in all his training had
been prepared by him for that moment, and he has been traveling the world ever since,
reliving the experience.
He was born in New Jersey in 1930, and he graduated from West Point Military
Academy. He served as a pilot in Korea and West Germany, and 1966 he was chosen an
astronaut.
Apollo 11 was launched to the moon on July 16. Four days later they landed near
the sea of Tranquility. The mission ended on July 24, with a splashdown in the Pacific
Ocean.
On coming back to earth, he became very depressed, and suffered from alcoholism.
He had married for the first time when he was young, and had three children . His second
marriage lasted a very short time. Fortunately, he seems to have found happiness and
stability with his third wife, Loris Driggs Cannon, who saved him from self –destruction.
They now live with their three dogs in California and six cars “for fun”. He has written
his autobiography and a science fiction book, called Encounter with Tiber, which was
published in 1996. He now travels the world, giving lecture tours and raising funds for
space exploration.
