On this occasion of the launch of Artemis II, I need to reshare this.
This is a photo of 8 of the surviving Apollo astronauts, taken on the 50th anniversary of the moon landing.
The man wearing ... well ... a heat shield, is Buzz Aldrin. I have to imagine his arrival went like this:
PHOTOGRAPHER: Um, Mr. Aldrin, this is a formal portrait.
BUZZ: Do you think I don't know that, son?
PHOTOG: Well, your outfit sir, it's-
BUZZ: Son. I've been to the moon. The mother-lovin' moon. In a tin can running on a graphing calculator powered by a can of sterno.
PHOTOG: Yes sir.
BUZZ: I get to wear what I want, where I want, when I want, for the rest of my life. Do you understand me, son?
PHOTOG: Right this way sir.And what really gets me is Charlie Duke. He's the guy in the tux with the gold trim. He thought he was going to stand out in this photo. Then in walks Mr. Moon Man.
@drmaddkap Ain’t he maga?

What a terrific photo, truly a capturing of history, with personal details shining through. I love it. Things changed so much, it's so good to see how things were before, and how they are now.

@drmaddkap If you ever get a chance, GO to the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum in DC. Absolutely Incredible. Besides the awesome collection of airplanes suspended above your head as you enter, they have Apollo, Mercury, and Soyuz spacecraft. Those early ones really were like tin cans.
You be you, Moon Man. -

@gnoll110 Hopefully, with the next moonwalk scheduled for 2028, we won’t have a time when there are no living moonwalkers.
