A lot of people think this is a photograph of Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon. It’s not. This is Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong’s crew-mate and the second man to walk on the moon. No photograph exists of Neil Armstrong walking on the moon. Why? Nobody knows. For some reason that he has never fully explained, astronaut Buzz Aldrin failed to take a single picture of Neil Armstrong while the two astronauts were together on the surface of the moon. Commander Armstrong was unaware of the error until the mission was complete and Armstrong, Aldrin and Michael Collins were all safely back on earth.

How would you feel if you were the first man to walk on the moon and you didn’t have a single photograph to show for it?
