A little old lady who?
Sod off you yodelling bastard!
Sorry to be a pedant (not really!) but wouldn’t that be Michael Collins? When Neil and Buzz went walkabout, he stayed inside to make the dinner or whatever it was.
I am such a spod.
I’m so pleased you pointed this out; my inner pedant would have had terrible trouble resisting the urge.
A pedant chips in like… Collins never landed on the moon. He stayed on the mother ship.
Which is probably what you meant. Nothing to see here…
There is some good footage of him coming down from the mothership. I think he’s in the nappy.

Which gave rise to the enduring quote from Mission Control: “not since Adam has a human being known such solitude”.
Buzz was first back to the moon lander. He shut the door to keep the heat in whilst he waited for Neil (who was also becoming the first man to have a quick slash on the moon) to come back. Michael Collins was having a nap whilst all this was going on.
He was supposed to leave the key on a piece of string through the letterbox.
Talking of Buzz Aldrin, I’m sure most of us have seen that video clip from 2002 when Aldrin is pursued and harassed by moon landing denier Bart Sibrel, until finally the former astronaut’s patience gives out and he punches the guy in the face. An absolute hoot!
