Buzz Aldrin (born Edwin Eugene Aldrin Jr.; January 20, 1930) is an American engineer, former astronaut, and Command Pilot in the United States Air Force. As Lunar Module Pilot on the Apollo 11 mission, he and mission commander Neil Armstrong were the first two humans to land on the Moon, while Michael Collins remained in lunar orbit in the Command/Service Module. Born in Glen Ridge, New Jersey, Aldrin graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York, with a degree in mechanical engineering. Commissioned in the United States Air Force, he served as a jet fighter pilot during the Korean War before becoming an aerial gunnery instructor, and later became flight commander in the 22d Fighter Squadron, while stationed at Bitburg Air Base, West Germany. * After earning a Sc.D. degree in astronautics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Aldrin was selected as a member of NASA's Astronaut Group 3, making him the first astronaut with a Ph.D. His doctoral thesis was Line-of-Sight Guidance Techniques for Manned Orbital Rendezvous. One of his first NASA missions was on Gemini 12 where he successfully proved that extravehicular activity (EVA) could be performed by astronauts, spending over 5 hours outside the craft, thus achieving the goals of the Gemini program and paving the way for the Apollo program. Nicknamed Dr. Rendezvous during the Project Gemini, Gemini 12 became the fifth mission to achieve rendezvous and the fourth docking with an Agena target vehicle. * Aldrin set foot on the Moon at 03:15:16 on July 21, 1969 (UTC), 9 minutes after Armstrong first touched the surface. A Presbyterian elder, Aldrin was the first person to hold a religious ceremony on the Moon. After he radioed Earth asking for a silent moment of contemplation, he privately took communion on the surface of the Moon, also becoming the first person to consume food and drink on the Moon. Although he was first rejected from NASA's astronaut program because he was not a test pilot, upon his retirement from the program, he became Commandant of the U.S. Air Force Test Pilot School. Aldrin was given numerous honors and is listed in several Halls of Fame. He was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1969. |
