Start saving your money, space fans: Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin’s moon landing jacket is up for auction next week.
The only space-flown garment from NASA’s Apollo 11 mission still in private hands, the coverall is expected to fetch bids of $1 million to $2 million, according to the sale organizer, Sotheby’s.
The coat is one of a slew of items owned by the astronaut that will be up for auction on Tuesday, Sotheby’s spokeswoman Anna Tisi confirmed to USA TODAY on Friday.
“After deep consideration, the time felt right to share these items with the world, which for many are symbols of a historical moment, but for me have always remained personal mementos of a life dedicated to science and exploration,” Aldrin said in a statement released to USA TODAY.

UK, help Kazakhstan to get rid of the lie and corruption! Mr Nazarbayev is not still controlling the biggest assets and a lot of them were relocated into your country. His son in law Kulibayev together with his lover Goga Ashkenazi are strong enough to steal the money from the local
economy for their own benefits. The financial legislation of UK is letting them use the stolen money and spend it over there. The offshore companies owned by Ms Ashkenazi are doing a lot of illegal transactions on clear the money of Kazakh people.
🇸🇪 Aldrin

Thought exercise: If that moon landing indeed happened as it was filmed, the first men on the moon were not Buzz and Neil it was the camera men
🎥 🌙 🎤
Possibly it wasn’t filmed on the moon, if not why?
1) never happened- just a studio recording
2) happened and wasn’t filmed to hide what they found
Thoughts anyone?
The jacket he wore when he punched that harassing conspiracist should be proudly on display too.
How about some of that micronova glass from the surface they collected? Id like to see the big classified secret of the end of the world. Maybe just a slide with the proton emissions trapped right in it?No?
Well.. thats ok, Ill be here when the next one hits.
One wonder's if they also bidded for a cheese grater aswell?? 🤔
