“I think the American Dream used to be achieving one's goals in your field of choice - and from that, all other things would follow. Now, I think the dream has morphed into the pursuit of money: Accumulate enough of it, and the rest will follow.”

American former astronaut, aeronautical engineer, and fighter pilot

Buzz Aldrin is an American former astronaut, aeronautical engineer, and fighter pilot. He is known for being the second person to walk on the Moon, following mission commander Neil Armstrong. Aldrin served as the pilot of NASA’s Gemini 12 mission in 1966, during which he made three spacewalks. He later flew as the Lunar Module Eagle pilot on Apollo 11 in 1969. He is now the last surviving member of that crew and the oldest living astronaut.
