Buzz Aldrin Landing Quotations

I'm urging NASA to foster the development of what I call 'runway landers.' No, that's not the name of a high stakes gambler from Vegas. It's a type of spacecraft that flies to orbit like the retiring Shuttles but then glides to a landing like an airplane on a runway. Just like the Shuttles do.

Landing in the ocean and waiting for the Navy to come alongside and haul you out of the drink is what space capsules require. And after the capsule is recovered, it would take weeks for the ship to return to port.

Having Buzz there is a great achievement, he was on the first moon landing alongside Neil Armstrong, so getting his signature on a beautiful panoramic photograph will be an historical item to treasure.
