Personally though I do hope the US does get back into space, China and Russia certainly are and if the US does not then they will surely fall behind and no longer be the leader of any part of the world.
I thought so.

Is it just me, or does buzz look a bit manson esque?

Seriously? Why share a snippet? The full video starting with Pence shows Aldrin quite uncomfortable. Obviously sweating under the lights. Right before Trump comes to the podium, you can see him swiping a handkerchief across his forehead and face. Also, see he is quite happy to be the first to shake Trump's hand. I am deducing that he is getting old, tired, but happy that he is still included in his dream of space.
Still it will need that private enterprise if it is ever to truly grow into something that can say to the solar system WE HAVE ARRIVED and perhaps even eventually to the Galaxy and the universe beyond.

Lol, dude looks like he just launched a rocket in his depends.
Buzz is 10x the man Trump is.
Trump doesn't deserve to even be in the same room as that American hero.

I agree but why are you taking this personally?

Agreed, Personally I do believe the US should have a state interest though until they have laid down the beginning of the infrastructure then later get the ball rolling for private enterprise, it is a rare case, it can not start without government incentive and state level motivation and it can not continue unless there is private enterprise, mining on the moon and the asteroid's, hotels' in space and beyond, the new frontier but unfortunately we are still too earth centered in our racial psychology.
Still it will need that private enterprise if it is ever to truly grow into something that can say to the solar system WE HAVE ARRIVED and perhaps even eventually to the Galaxy and the universe beyond.

Buzz Aldrin had some wonderful facial reactions when prez Trump spoke about getting the US out into space. It is as if he was thinking "Yeah, anyway Trump, about space, here's the thing..."
I know, I KNOW!!! Nothing to see here...BUT, it sure is funny!
Enjoy
