EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic photo print, Buzz Aldrin stands proudly next to the American flag on the surface of the Moon during the Apollo 11 mission in July 1969. As lunar module pilot, Aldrin had the incredible opportunity to explore and walk on the Moon's surface alongside commander Neil Armstrong. The image captures a significant moment in human history, symbolizing mankind's remarkable achievement of landing on another celestial body.
