Ciekawa historia. Buzz Aldrin ma prawdopodobnie bardzo burzliwe życie prywatne.

Mam takie wrażenie, że w przyszłym roku będzie więcej działań Buzza na całym świecie, a to też oznacza więcej działań finansowych. (Przypadek? Nie sądzę! )

Buzz Aldrin explains why he was a no-show at Apollo 11 gala at Kennedy Space Center
James Dean  Florida Today Published 4:49 p.m. UTC Jul 23, 2018

(...) Aldrin, 88, of Satellite Beach, told FLORIDA TODAY in a statement that he stayed away due to a legal fight within his family and disagreements over the direction of Buzz Aldrin’s ShareSpace Foundation.

“While initially looking forward to it, due to the present course of events related to my space initiative, also current legal matters linked to the ShareSpace Foundation, I have decided not to attend at this time,” he wrote. “As some of you are aware, I formed ShareSpace Foundation in 1998 for the promotion of individual space voyagers.

Tego o Buzzie nie wiedziałem. Właśnie świętował 40 lat trzeźwości (kumam, że w formie w ogóle nie tykania alkoholu).
O tym, że Buzz miał "pewne problemy" w latach 70. to było dość powszechnie wiadomo. Nie wiedziałem jednak, że od tego czasu Buzz w ogóle odstawił kieliszek.

13 key pieces of life advice from Astronaut Buzz Aldrin
 Rebecca Harrington, Tech Insider Apr. 6, 2016

As one of the 12 men who walked on the Moon, Buzz Aldrin has a lot of stories to tell.
In his latest book, "No Dream Is Too High," out April 5, Aldrin packages these anecdotes into 13 life lessons.

It's an inspirational read that's packed with little-known facts about the Space Race — including how President Kennedy originally wanted to go to Mars, what Aldrin declared on his customs form after returning from the Moon, and why he wore a particular bracelet to the Moon and back.

Here are the main tenets of the 13 lessons Aldrin teaches us in this new book.
