Aldrin has also developed \u201cThe Cyler\u201d, a spacecraft system that is designed to make perpetual orbits between the Earth and Mars and he holds a patent for a permanent space station which he designed.<\/p>\n<p>In speaking with him, one thing is clear.\u00a0 Buzz Aldrin is passionate about space exploration, keeping it alive and educating the public about it.<\/p>\n<p>So, with that bit of background, take a peek at my exclusive interview with Dr. Buzz Aldrin, seen here in its entirety for the first time:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2798\" src=\"http:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/buzz_aldrin_6.jpg\" alt=\"buzz_aldrin_6\" width=\"215\" height=\"260\" \/>DLE: Dr. Aldrin, a pleasure to speak with you.\u00a0 How did you become involved with FLY ME TO THE MOON?<\/p>\n<p>BA: Well, there was a person who was in public affairs who knew that I was quite available and anxious to participate in the public knowing more and more about what the space program is about.\u00a0 He knew that I would probably be responsive to this.\u00a0 So he asked me if I would participate and I said, \u201cSure I would.\u201d\u00a0 So, I learned about the basic plot, and it was very intriguing, so I was very very happy to participate in recording the epilogue.<\/p>\n<p>DLE: You have been, out of the entire space program, probably the one person who has done the most to make the public aware and improve awareness about space exploration.\u00a0 I know you\u2019ve also invented a lot of things.\u00a0 You\u2019ve got your Star Craft Boosters Company.\u00a0 And now you are working with Share Space Foundation; your non-profit.\u00a0 Can you tell me something about Share Space, especially in light of Richard Branson\u2019s unveiling of White Knight?<\/p>\n<p>BA:\u00a0 I was up there when they unveiled White Knight 2, a very very large carrier aircraft for spaceships, that may be unveiled within the next year.\u00a0 It should be able to carry 6 passengers and a crew of 2 up to, let me say, \u201cthe fringes of space\u201d, 100 km which is the best definition.\u00a0 People should experience about 4 minutes of weightlessness for floating inside the cabin.\u00a0 I think that\u2019s going to be a very intriguing, exciting adventure.\u00a0 It\u2019s a little out of my pocketbook realm.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-2799\" src=\"http:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/buzz_aldrin_7.jpg\" alt=\"buzz_aldrin_7\" width=\"145\" height=\"110\" \/>But I\u00a0 know that the real thing is being in orbit, so 10-15 years ago, I was quite supportive of things that were laughing called \u201ctourists in space.\u201d\u00a0 At one time somebody said, why don\u2019t we have a lottery for people.\u00a0 So I have been pursuing that idea for quite a while now and have been supportive of people to experience space in many, many different fashions.\u00a0 Now, why would I want to do that?\u00a0 Well, the more they understand, the more supportive they will be of the things we are trying to do.\u00a0 We need public support for supporting exploration because people are always saying, \u201cWell, look at all that money being spent on space.\u201d\u00a0 Well, it makes a big splash.\u00a0 It\u2019s very highly visible.\u00a0 It\u2019s covered by the networks.\u00a0 But it\u2019s not that expensive.\u00a0 At the peak of the Apollo, it was 3 1\/2% or 4% [of the federal budget] at the most for a year or two, and right now it\u2019s 6\/10ths or 7\/10ths of 1% of our national budget.\u00a0 That\u2019s not a whole lot of money.<\/p>\n<p>DLE: I agree.\u00a0 It\u2019s deplorable.<\/p>\n<p>BA: The only thing that excites the public is when something goes wrong.\u00a0 Right now the networks watch the shuttle launch and as soon as the solid rockets are separated, then they switch to something else and the space pod hasn\u2019t even made orbit yet. It\u2019s still pretty hazardous if the engines quit at that time.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m very interested in supporting the idea of exploration and why we should explore and what did we get from exploration in the past.\u00a0 And to use the 40<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary of the Apollo mission to remind the public of why we want to explore in the future and what did we get out of doing this in the past.\u00a0 So that\u2019s being done by Share Space.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2800\" src=\"http:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/apollo_11_night_to_remember-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"apollo_11_night_to_remember\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/apollo_11_night_to_remember-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/apollo_11_night_to_remember-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/apollo_11_night_to_remember-90x90.jpg 90w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/apollo_11_night_to_remember-380x380.jpg 380w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/apollo_11_night_to_remember-125x125.jpg 125w, https:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/apollo_11_night_to_remember.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>DLE: Can you give me an idea of how Share Space works?<\/p>\n<p>BA: Originally, the idea of Share Space was to have somebody be able to purchase a share of space, like a share on the stock market, with dividends being distributed uniformly.\u00a0 They would be distributed by random selection and we limit this to people who have demonstrated a desire to support space activity by having joined some kind of advocacy group.\u00a0 Well, if they hear about this \u201clottery\u201d, which it really isn\u2019t, and they want to join the group, that\u2019s fine.\u00a0 We will encourage them.\u00a0 And the group will encourage other people to join their advocacy groups like, The Mars Soceity, The Moon Society, The Planetary Society, The National Space Society, The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Professional Education Society, and things of that nature.\u00a0 So we can expand the membership and these organizations can also collect the investment of a share, $100.00 (yes, only One Hundred Dollars). Then they take their commission and forward it to a central organization and then we\u2019ll get all the legal approval and we\u2019ll announce ahead of time what the guaranteed prizes are going to be so there\u2019s no scam.\u00a0 And if you win a prize, you can\u2019t transfer it.\u00a0 You use it or lose it.\u00a0 So it\u2019s not gambling.\u00a0 You can\u2019t sell it on eBay.\u00a0 Then if we have winners of suborbital flights, we\u2019ll get great publicity for Richard Branson or any of those people that offer suborbital flights and what we\u2019ll do is take some of those winners and have a really, really spectacular drawing of non-guaranteed opportunities &#8211; &#8211; a low probability chance of winning a trip with the Russians or somebody else up to the space station for 8 or 10 days.\u00a0 An even more exciting trip would be go to the Space Station, leave the Space Station and join up with a propulsion unit that can take you around the moon and back.\u00a0 And that\u2019s available right now through an organization called Space Adventures for $100 million dollars.<\/p>\n<p>DLE:\u00a0\u00a0 WOW!<\/p>\n<p>BA: So, for $100 bucks you can have a small minuscule chance.<\/p>\n<p>DLE:\u00a0 I\u2019m in!<\/p>\n<p>BA: Well, we have a ways to go, but we want to take advantage of the enthusiasm that begins to grow as Space Ship 2 and White Knight 2 go through their testing processes and the initial people go up into suborbital space 100 km or so, 4 minutes of weightlessness.\u00a0 When that enthusiasm begins to grow we hope to have this up and running with cooperation of the Xprise people and the Google people and the organizations of these different advocacy groups.\u00a0 Space Exploration Alliance.<\/p>\n<p>DLE:\u00a0 I\u2019m sure you have thoughts on this issue.\u00a0 What do you think happened to the American public to become so apathetic about space exploration?<\/p>\n<p>BA: It\u2019s the rapid pace of our lives and the fact that people just assume the government is going to do something for them.\u00a0 So, the government went to the moon.\u00a0 Okay, what\u2019s next?\u00a0 What\u2019s in it for me?\u00a0 And if they see people kicking up dust on the moon for awhile, there\u2019s nothing new about that.\u00a0 I\u2019d rather see my soap opera.\u00a0 So when that kind of an attitude begins to take place. . . . As evidenced by the fact that the failed mission to the moon, Apollo 13, was going to have a press conference, but none of the networks were interested in carrying it until they had an explosion on board.\u00a0 Then you couldn\u2019t keep them [the networks] away.\u00a0 Everyone was interested because there was a potential catastrophe.\u00a0 That\u2019s what the information industry, the communications industry, wants.\u00a0 It wants to find something wrong and then fix it immediately.\u00a0 So if we live that way by fixing something that\u2019s wrong immediately, we\u2019re never going to find long term options.\u00a0 If our country is driven by shareholder values, we won\u2019t invest in things that the shareholders won\u2019t care about.\u00a0 We won\u2019t invest in the future.\u00a0 Shareholders are interested in making a profit now.<\/p>\n<p>DLE: That\u2019s the unfortunate part.<\/p>\n<p>BA: That\u2019s the way it is until a few people realize that we need to modify to that kind of patience of\u00a0 Asia, as it\u2019s\u00a0 those countries that are going to succeed.\u00a0 They will sit and invest in long term things that don\u2019t have any immediate returns.<\/p>\n<p>DLE: We\u2019re talking now in light of the release of the 3D animated film \u201cFly Me To The Moon.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 So, how do you think that this film may impact space exploration with a whole new generation?<\/p>\n<p>BA: I told you two things that Share Space Foundation does.\u00a0 One, is the 40<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary of Apollo, trying to excite people.\u00a0 The other is a lottery type opportunities. And the third is education.\u00a0 We try to make accountable the education that is offered in grades K through 12.\u00a0 We aren\u2019t trying to dictate what the curriculum is, whatever is set out as the policy by the State, by the Federal government, but we want to have science education ambassadors who are retired science teachers in a district, relay back and forth between the parents who are voters and the Assemblymen, the State Senators, the Congresspersons.\u00a0 They don\u2019t work for that politician but they are an ambassador between the people and that entity, trying to see that policies are carried out correctly and that they are standardized by some standardizing of points of view and mission statements and objectives.\u00a0 They represent some kind of a cohesive effort which,\u00a0 obviously is going to raise the ire, I suspect, of the teachers\u2019 unions.\u00a0 But it\u2019s not trying to organize teachers for their benefit.\u00a0 We\u2019re trying to represent the parents.\u00a0 Trying to represent the policies set out by the State governments and the Federal governments.<\/p>\n<p>DLE: Do you see us going back to the moon in the near future?<\/p>\n<p>BA: Well, President Bush at the beginning of a very terse re-election, second term, well, he took the boldness after the Columbia accident kind of forced him to do something, and said, \u2018we\u2019re gonna go to the moon\u2019\u00a0 and he used the year of 2020 as when we\u2019d like to do that.\u00a0 Now that\u2019s 50 years plus 1 year from the time that we landed on the moon in 1969.<\/p>\n<p>DLE: Right.\u00a0 But nobody\u2019s created any hubbub or anything about it.<\/p>\n<p>BA: Well, it\u2019s not high on our politician\u2019s desire for reelection.<\/p>\n<p>DLE: And that\u2019s unfortunate.<\/p>\n<p>BA: It is but I\u2019m trying to be a catalyst by trying to get a transition advisory team to make the transition from space shuttle\/space station to exploration the way President Bush set our objective.\u00a0 Because I think that objective is very good for the nation.\u00a0 And we need to interface those choices, those options, for staying the course, sticking with what we decided to do, or maybe something much less than that or maybe something in between.\u00a0 We\u2019d like to try those options for consideration among the two 2008 candidates for the Presidency.\u00a0\u00a0 And then refine them a little bit.\u00a0 You know, we\u2019re not going to talk to the candidates themselves.\u00a0 We\u2019re going to talk to the reporters and some of their science advisors and space advisors.\u00a0 Then after the election we\u2019ll be able to follow through with the winner and try and preclude things from going too far to be altered or modified.<\/p>\n<p>DLE: Over the years you have created various techniques and designs that have been implemented in most of the NASA missions.\u00a0 Is there one design or one technique, something that you personally with your astronautic experience have created, that you believe has been the most impactful on the space program.<\/p>\n<p>BA: Well, yes.\u00a0 I wrote my doctoral thesis on manned orbital rendezvous.\u00a0 The basic techniques that I evolved there were refined, worked over, with lots of people with my help, and they became the method by which we executed our rendezvous efforts in the Gemini program, Apollo and so on.\u00a0 It\u2019s this building block approach.\u00a0 I\u2019ve taken that knowledge and that experience to define a strategy for going from Earth to Mars whenever we began to really think about serious planning.\u00a0 That\u2019s called Cycling Spaceships and they make use of Aldrin Orbit.\u00a0 I\u2019m also working on evolutionary lander concepts for use at the Moon and Mars.\u00a0 And in addition to the innovative marketing things, like Shared Space and Lottery, I\u2019m also trying to help the training for suborbital flights to make the most out of their weightless training.\u00a0 There are a number of things from my experience and my ability to see something and then try and make it better.\u00a0 I don\u2019t want to waste that time.\u00a0 I want to make that useful whether it makes me any money or not.<\/p>\n<p>DLE: It\u2019s very humbling speaking with you.\u00a0 You truly are a gift not just to this country but to the space program.<\/p>\n<p>BA: Well, make sure that people go see \u201cFly Me To The Moon.\u201d\u00a0 Three flies that stowaway on Apollo 11.\u00a0 It\u2019s the cutest thing I\u2019ve ever seen put together that combines the reality of history with the fantasy that\u2019s so enjoyable and thrilling to youngsters.<\/p>\n<p>DLE: Oh, trust me.\u00a0 I have been talking this up to everyone.\u00a0 I\u2019ve got some young nephews they are\u00a0 just dying for this film to come out.\u00a0 They are already asking can they stowaway on a space craft.<\/p>\n<p>BA: No.\u00a0\u00a0 Absolutely not.\u00a0 No stowaways.<\/p>\n<p>DLE: There\u2019s a lot of buzz being generated out there about the film.\u00a0 I think the film is very well done.\u00a0 Your contribution is amazing and I think it\u2019s a direction that the new direction needs to take.\u00a0 Hopefully this will be a catalyst to the youngsters.<\/p>\n<p>BA: I sure hope so because we need to train those K through 12 people.<\/p>\n<p>DLE: That\u2019s it.\u00a0 They don\u2019t have the luxury that I had of actually having actual films and getting up every morning when there was a lift off and watching it.\u00a0 It\u2019s sad.\u00a0 Thank you so much Dr. Aldrin.<\/p>\n<p>BA: Thank you, Debbie.\u00a0 It\u2019s been a pleasure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: debbie lynn elias As we all know (or should
