This story came up again tonight on All In with Chris Hayes. Here's the video of this encounter:
I wonder if Aldrin faced any charges or a civil suit by tne conspiracy bozo.
CNN and the NASA archivists discovered some amazing footage shot in full-color 70mm during the Apollo 11 mission and released a documentary this summer called simply Apollo 11. Even if you've seen coverage of the mission before, you've never seen anything like this.
Sure beats the grainy black-and-white images I watched on a tiny portable TV back in 1969! Highly recommended for anyone with access to CNN. They apparently had high-resolution cameras on the spacecraft as well.
