On Buzz Aldrin's 93rd birthday, we're looking back on our interview with the astronaut where he discusses his passion for the world beneath the surface of the sea 🐟
“Looking around me and then glancing upward at the surface of the sea, there is a strong realisation that I’m in the one place where I’m secluded from all the daily troubles and problems that the world has. My son gave me a birthday present of a weeklong cruise in the Galápagos Islands. On that trip I encountered a whale shark and was photographed swimming along just above its fin. It was 35 to 40 feet long! It’s one of my screensavers and always gets a reaction from people.
It wasn’t one of those remarks in jest, he was deadly serious about it, but it never happened.”“It is one of those strange coincidences,” explains Buzz Aldrin, “that my mother’s maiden name was Moon.” We are sat across the kitchen table in Villa One at the breathtaking Soneva Fushi resort in the Maldives and Aldrin is setting off on a morning scuba dive, his second great love after space exploration.
