@konstructivizm He never walked on the Moon, I was born in 1956 and watched all the tv coverage. It look staged then and looks even more staged now.

He walked on the Moon in 1969. More than 50 years later, he watched humanity prepare to go back. During the legendary Apollo 11 mission, Buzz Aldrin became one of the first humans to step onto the lunar surface — leaving footprints that became part of history.Now, in 2026, at age 96, he has lived to see Artemis II carry the next generation of astronauts around the Moon — the first crewed deep-space mission since Apollo. A powerful bridge between the past and the future.Aldrin’s excitement was palpable as he witnessed this new chapter unfold. The same man who planted an American flag on another world is now watching humanity take its first real steps toward a sustained return.Apollo proved we could go. Artemis is proving we can go back — and stay.It’s a profoundly moving moment: a lunar pioneer still with us to see the dream reignited.A living connection between two eras of exploration. An extraordinary reminder of how far we’ve come… and how much further we’re going. If you could witness one moment in space history firsthand, which would you choose?
