[i]OH HECK NO! It wasn't flown. But you can amaze your civilian friends with the WHATTHEHELL? I found this week. A piece of beta cloth is mounted in a descriptive Lucite display which reads, in part: "The small swatch of fabric contained in this Lucite cube is made from beta cloth ... the swatch came from my checklist bag worn by me aboard the Apollo 11 Lunar Module. The checklist bag was used to carry important navigational charts and other items necessary to get us to the moon..." This piece is a mock up of a proposed memorabilia item; hence, the lack of signature. Despite indications, the beta cloth contained in this piece has not been flown. This was purchased from the personal collection of Buzz Aldrin.[/i]
