I'm watching The Space Age: NASA's Story, and Buzz Aldrin says that as they landed on the Moon, Neil Armstrong may or may not have shook his hand, he can't remember.
Again, as I've said before: we need to get these people in front of a camera before they die. I know Armstrong is famously reclusive, but they're 80 now, and they're still alive; someone needs to explain to Armstrong that what he did was bigger than himself, and we're dying to hear what he has to say about landing on the Moon.
The daily echo chamber of nonsense we go round and around about today is incredible considering that over 40 years ago, we put a coupla dudes in a tin can and landed them on the moon. Incredible.
