When the Apollo 11 landing module detached and sent Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin hurtling towards the surface of the moon, Michael Collins began a journey of his own.continued to orbit the moon, further removed from humanity than any person before him.
As his command module dipped behind the far side of the moon, it blocked his communications with Earth and he became completely isolated, more than 300,000km from home."It is there, reinforced by the fact that radio contact with the Earth abruptly cuts off at the instant I disappear behind the moon, I am alone now, truly alone, and absolutely isolated from any known life," he wrote.
The plan had always been that if Armstrong and Aldrin crashed or were unable to leave the moon's surface, Collins was to head back to Earth alone. "These two men are laying down their lives in mankind’s most noble goal: the search for truth and understanding," Nixon would have said about Armstrong and Aldrin had they been left to die on the Moon.
. How does anyone believe this happened in 1969? Seriously... So his piece of sht metal box floated around the moon and magically rendezvoused with the Eagle as it punched-up from the surface and then they all sailed happily ever after? What total horse sht! .
. That the world would know he's part of a fraud? .
Incredible courage
