He Landed Second, But Became The First To Pee On Moon
The story possible goes back to the year 1969, when the man accompanied his mission commander, Neil Armstrong; he was the Lunar Module pilot on Apollo 11.
Marking the 40th anniversary of the first manned moon landing this month, the US astronaut reflects back on his moonwalk, his embrace of Twitter, his hopes for the future, and the hallowed lunar leak, accomplished on the lander's ladder, into a special bag in his space suit. When asked on what he thought about the expedition, he retorts, "Everyone has their firsts on the moon, and that one hasn't been disputed by anybody," he said in the 2007 documentary 'In the Shadow of the Moon'.
Though he might just be the second person to step into the moon, just minutes after Armstrong, he is still a bit embarrassed about his fumbling attempt to reboard the Eagle lander. "I jumped what I thought was going to be enough to get up to the bottom rung of the ladder, and I didn't jump hard enough the first time, so I had to go back and do it again," Aldrin told National Geographic News.
Asked about his initial impressions of the moon, Aldrin rhapsodized over the 'magnificent desolation' of the lunar surface and the 'velvet luminosity' of the sky.
The astronaut, presently, is indulging in the lighter side of his moon milestone, and embracing new technologies' to reach out to younger generations. He is said to have been avidly into alcohols, post-Apollo period. And now, the man feels that he should take his experience for a greater deed.
For Aldrin, Twitter seems to have become a great place to communicate, communicate with a wide range of audience, thereby disseminating what ever he can. "People communicate in Twittering ways," he said, referring to the micro-blogging Web site Twitter. "I've learned how to do that," he added.
