Buzz Aldrin Biography
Buzz Aldrin was born in Montclair, New Jersey on January 20, 1930.
His mother, Marion Moon, was the daughter of an Army Chaplain. His
father, Edwin Eugene Aldrin, was an aviation pioneer, a student of
rocket developer Robert Goddard, and an aide to the immortal General
Billy Mitchell. Buzz was educated at West Point, graduating with
honors in 1951, third in his class. After receiving his wings, he
flew Sabre Jets in 66 combat missions in the Korean Conflict,
shooting down two MIG-15's. Returning to his education, he earned a
Doctorate in Astronautics from the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology in Manned Space Rendezvous. The techniques he devised
were used on all NASA missions, including the first space docking
with the Russian Cosmonauts.
In October 1963, Buzz was selected by NASA as one of the early
astronauts. In November 1966, he established a new record for
Extra-Vehicular Activity in space on the Gemini XII orbital flight
mission. Buzz has logged 4500 hours of flying time, 290 of which
were in space, including 8 hours of EVA. As Backup Command Module
Pilot for Apollo VIII, man's first flight around the moon, he
significantly improved operational techniques for astronautical
navigation star display. Then, on July 20, 1969, Buzz and Neil
Armstrong made their historic Apollo XI moon walk, thus becoming the
first two humans to set foot on another world. This unprecedented
heroic endeavor was witnessed by the largest worldwide television
audience in history.
Upon returning from the moon, Buzz embarked on an international
goodwill tour. He was presented the Presidential Medal of Freedom,
the highest honor amongst over 50 other distinguished awards and
medals from the United States and numerous other countries.
Since retiring from NASA, the Air Force, and his position as
Commander of the Test Pilot School at Edwards Air Force Base, Dr.
Aldrin has remained at the forefront of efforts to ensure a
continued leading role for America in manned space exploration. To
advance his lifelong commitment to venturing outward in space, he
has created a master plan of evolving missions for sustained
exploration utilizing his concept, "The Cycler", a spacecraft system
which makes perpetual orbits between Earth and Mars. In 1993 Dr.
Aldrin received a U.S. patent for a permanent space station he
designed. More recently he founded his rocket design company,
Starcraft Boosters, Inc., and the ShareSpace Foundation, a nonprofit
devoted to opening the doors to space tourism for all people.
Dr. Aldrin has continued to share his vision for the future of space
travel by authoring two space novels that dramatically portray man's
discovery of the ultimate frontier: The Return (Forge Books, 2000)
and Encounter with Tiber (Warner Books, 1996). He has also authored
an autobiography, Return to Earth and a historical documentary, Men
from Earth, describing his trip to the moon and his unique
perspective on America's space program.
On Valentine's Day 1988, Buzz married Lois Driggs Cannon of Phoenix,
Arizona. She is a Stanford graduate, an active community leader in
Southern California, and personal manager of all of Buzz's
endeavors. Their combined family is comprised of six grown children
and one grandson. Their leisure time is spent exploring the deep sea
world of scuba diving and skiing the mountain tops of Sun Valley,
Idaho.
Now Buzz, as Starcraft Enterprises - the name of his private space
endeavors - is lecturing and traveling throughout the world to
pursue and discuss his and others' latest concepts and ideas for
exploring the universe. He is a leading voice in charting the course
of future space efforts from Planet Earth. |
