 Half a century ago this week, Apollo 10 lunar module pilot Gene Cernan (left) talked about his experiences in lunar orbit with Buzz Aldrin, LMP for Apollo 11, during an Apollo 10 postflight de-briefing session. The first attempt to land on the moon was only six weeks away. |

It would be very interesting to be a fly on the wall to listen in on this briefing. Thanks for again sharing a great image Ed. |

Great photo! If only there had been writing on the blackboard in the background, that would have been fun to see. Powerful history. |

"Hey Buzz, instead of saying "SON OF A BITCH" in that kind of situation, I recommend "FIDDLE DEE DEE!" |
