Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. Inscribed "Best Wishes / Buzz Aldrin / 7-30-96" on title page in blue ink. Obtained in person at Vroman's Bookstore in Pasadena, CA on July 30, 1996. Buzz Aldrin was born in Montclair, New Jersey on January 20, 1930. He was educated at West Point, graduating with honors in 1951, third in his class. After receiving his wings, he flew Sabre Jets in 66 combat missions in the Korean Conflict, shooting down two MIG-15's. Returning to his education, he earned a Doctorate in Astronautics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Manned Space Rendezvous. The techniques he devised were used on all NASA missions, including the first space docking with the Russian Cosmonauts. In October 1963, Aldrin was selected by NASA as one of the early astronauts. In November 1966, he established a new record for Extra- Vehicular Activity in space on the Gemini XII orbital flight mission. He has logged 4500 hours of flying time, 290 of which were in space, including 8 hours of EVA. As Backup Command Module Pilot for Apollo VIII, man's first flight around the moon, Buzz significantly improved operational techniques for astronautical navigation star display. Then, on July 20, 1969, Buzz and Neil Armstrong made their historic Apollo XI moon walk, thus becoming the first two humans to set foot on another world. This unprecedented heroic endeavor was witnessed by the largest worldwide television audience in history. Signed by Author(s).

Januar 1930 als Edwin Eugene Aldrin Jr. in Montclair, New Jersey) ist ein ehemaliger US-amerikanischer Astronaut. Aldrin betrat im Rahmen der Apollo-11-Mission kurz nach Neil Armstrong als zweiter Mensch den Mond. Aldrin wurde als jüngstes von drei Kindern des ehemaligen Army-Piloten Edwin Eugene Aldrin Sr. (1896-1974) und Marion Gaddys Aldrin (geb. Moon, 1903-1968) geboren. Bereits im Alter von zwei Jahren wurde er von seinem Vater in einem Dienstflugzeug der Standard Oil Company mitgenommen. Schon als Kind wurde er Buzz gerufen. Buzz ist die Kurzform von buzzer, dem missglückten Versuch seiner Schwester, ihn brother (engl. für Bruder) zu rufen.[1] 1988 legte er seinen Geburtsnamen Edwin Eugene Aldrin Jr. offiziell ab.[2] Während des Zweiten Weltkrieges wurde sein Vater als Pilot eingezogen und kam nur selten und kurz nach Hause. Aldrins Mutter Marion litt unter Depressionen und Alkoholsucht. Im Alter von 9 bis 15 Jahren verbrachte Aldrin seine Sommerferien regelmäßig in Jugendcamps in Maine. Dort genoss er die Kameradschaft unter den Jungs und lernte, sich in Wettkämpfen durchzusetzen. Während seiner Schulzeit spielte er Football und betrieb Stabhochsprung. Militärdienst und Studium Aldrin absolvierte die Militärakademie in West Point, die er 1951 als Drittbester seiner Klasse mit einem Bachelor-Abschluss als Maschinenbauingenieur verließ. Er diente bei der US Air Force und wurde als Kampfpilot im Koreakrieg eingesetzt, in dem er 66 Einsätze flog und zwei MiG-15 abschoss. Nach dem Krieg diente er in Nevada, Alabama und Colorado. Auf dem Militärflugplatz Bitburg/Deutschland diente er als Flugzeugführer in der 22nd Fighter Squadron auf einer F-100 Super Sabre. Ab 1959 studierte er Luft- und Raumfahrttechnik am Massachusetts Institute of Technology, sein Studium beendete er 1963 mit erfolgreicher Promotion. Seine Doktorarbeit schrieb er über ?Navigationstechniken für bemannte Rendezvous im Orbit?.[3] 1967 erhielt er vom Gustavus-Adolphus-College auch einen Ehrendoktor der Naturwissenschaften. Nach dem Studium kehrte er zur Air Force zurück und diente im Gemini Target Office in Los Angeles sowie auf der Edwards Air Force Base. NASA-Tätigkeit Einsatz im Gemini-Programm Aldrin bei einer EVA bei Gemini 12 Aldrin bewarb sich bei der NASA und wurde am 18. Oktober 1963 als einer der 14 Astronauten der dritten Astronautengruppe der Öffentlichkeit vorgestellt. Er war der erste Astronaut mit Doktorgrad und einer der wenigen, die nicht zuvor Testpilot waren. Ihm wurde als Fachgebiet die Missionsplanung der Gemini-Flüge zugeteilt. Für das geplante Rendezvous eines Gemini-Raumschiffs mit einem Zielsatelliten konnte er seine Kenntnisse der Himmelsmechanik einbringen, indem er statt tangentialen Umlaufbahnen konzentrische vorschlug. Während des Fluges von Gemini 5 im August 1965 diente er als Verbindungssprecher (Capcom) in der Leitzentrale, doch das geplante Rendezvous konnte wegen eines Defektes im Raumschiff nicht durchgeführt werden. Am 25. Januar 1966 wurde er als Ersatzpilot für Gemini 10 eingeteilt. Üblicherweise führte dies zu einer Nominierung für die Hauptmannschaft drei Flüge später, doch das Gemini-Programm sollte mit Gemini 12 enden, so dass Aldrin voraussichtlich nicht mehr zum Einsatz kommen würde und auf eine Einteilung zu einem frühen Apolloflug hoffen musste. Tragischerweise profitierte Aldrin vom Tod zweier Kollegen. Elliot See und Charles Bassett, die als Besatzung von Gemini 9 vorgesehen waren, verunglückten am 28. Februar 1966 bei einem Flugzeugabsturz tödlich. Die bisherige Ersatzmannschaft, bestehend aus Tom Stafford und Eugene Cernan, rückte nach, und Aldrin wurde in die neue Ersatzmannschaft von Gemini 9 versetzt. Der Flug fand im Juni 1966 statt, Aldrin war wieder als Capcom beteiligt. Als sich herausstellte, dass sich die Verkleidung des Nasenkonus des Zielsatelliten ATDA aufgrund einiger falsch montierter Sicherungsbänder nicht vollständig gelöst hatte und daher das geplante Kopplungsmanöver mit dem ATDA nicht möglich war, schlug Aldrin vor, dass Cernan während eines Weltraumspaziergangs die Sicherungsbänder manuell durchtrennen sollte. Dieser angesichts der zu diesem Zeitpunkt äußerst geringen Erfahrung mit Weltraumausstiegen als abenteuerlich empfundene Vorschlag führte bei NASA-Offiziellen zu einigem Unmut und zu Zweifeln an Aldrins Eignung für einen Raumflug. Dennoch wurde er nach Ende des Fluges von Gemini 9 am 17. Juni 1966 als Pilot von Gemini 12 nominiert. Während der Vorbereitung arbeitete er noch im Juli 1966 als Capcom für die Gemini-10-Mission. Aldrin startete am 11. November 1966 zusammen mit Jim Lovell zu seinem ersten Raumflug. Zu seinen Aufgaben gehörte ein Außenbordeinsatz. Dieser wesentliche Teil des Gemini-Programms hatte bisher nicht zufriedenstellend funktioniert. Aldrin hatte sich jedoch gründlich vorbereitet und als erster Astronaut die Schwerelosigkeit in einem Wassertank simuliert. An drei Tagen führte Aldrin im Raumanzug Außenbordeinsätze durch: zweimal in der geöffneten Luke stehend, ein drittes Mal verließ er das Raumschiff vollständig, wobei er noch mit einer Leine von neun Metern Länge verbunden war. Insgesamt verbrachte Aldrin 5 Stunden und 30 Minuten bei den Außenbordeinsätzen, was zu der Zeit einen neuen Rekord darstellte. Durch langsame und vorsichtige Bewegungen konnte Aldrin alle Arbeiten problemlos durchführen. Regelmäßige Ruhepausen schützten vor Überhitzung und beschlagenem Visier. Aldrin hatte damit bewiesen, dass das letzte große Problem des Gemini-Programms gelöst werden konnte. Einsatz im Apollo-Programm Buzz Aldrin in der Mondlandefähre Aldrins Fußabdruck auf dem Mond vom 21. Juli 1969 Aldrin auf dem Mond Zum Ende des Gemini-Programms waren bereits sechs Mannschaften für die ersten Apollo-Flüge eingeteilt. Da Aldrin den letzten Gemini-Flug absolviert hatte, w.
