U.S. President Donald Trump marked the 50th anniversary of the first human steps on the moon at an Oval Office meeting Friday with former Apollo 11 astronauts.

Last Updated Friday, July 19, 2019 3:16PM EDT

Flanked by Buzz Aldrin, Mike Collins and the family of mission commander Neil Armstrong in the Oval Office, Trump was briefed on his administration's plans to send astronauts back to the moon and onto Mars, as well as advances in commercial spaceflight and the reusability of space systems. Trump directed Bridenstine to listen to the "other side" of his Mars exploration plan, referencing concerns by some that the most efficient way to the red planet doesn't begin with a lunar visit. NASA's current plans include a moon as a celestial stepping-stone to Mars.

Waiting for Trump to say he knows the moon, nice people, very nice, nicest ever, in a place that floats around, surrounded by air, lots of air, and other floating things that are also nice, very nice.

what's missing from this pic?

And his wife looks sooo thrilled to be there she hates him that much

Hate to tell you lefties their damn proud supporters of this president. Should see the video of what Buzz does to a moon landing denier, epic!

Why is his wife there because she’s an alien who should go back to where she came from?

when CTV publishes AP stories, like this one, it tends to be ok. AP standards...but when they publish their own 'journalism'? just dumb left wing propaganda. so transparent.

I wish he would have gone to the moon on a one way trip to celebrate.

I think it was *some* of its astronauts since the most prominent one has been dead since 2012.

Why the Apollo 11 moon landing conspiracy endures 50 years laterAs one of the first major events on TV, when people were transfixed by made-up stories on sets, the moon landing theory was made to convince susceptible viewers I do not know if man has walked on the moon, it is possible they have. What is not possible is the notion that any of these pictures are real. 🇺🇸Incredible.🇺🇸. 😀👍👍👍 So who took these pictures?

Colby Cosh: Alan Turing, and the Apollo computers he made possibleOnce computers entered the Apollo fold, the work assigned expanded and shrunk and then contracting whenever software needed to fit the device’s pathetic capacity Yes I see that. Well done. There are many people now claiming credit for the lunar landing, it’s a wonder we know who these guys are.
