Space Station
Buzz Aldrin’s article on your Commentary page (July 21) was outstanding. It brings an imaginative new approach to our long-troubled space station.
His ideas deserve serious attention because of his achievements. He has not spent his life behind a desk, but has had a distinguished career as an astronaut.
He was the second man to step on the moon, and all the pictures you see of an astronaut on the moon during the first landing are of Aldrin, because Neil Armstrong was using the camera. In one picture, Armstrong is seen as a reflection in Aldrin’s visor.
