True.

Number of people who've walked on the moon: 12
Number of people who've driven on the moon: 6

I actually thought it was fewer than that

I'm guessing the only people in the future whom travel to the moon will be corporate people on a business adventure. They may not even be allowed to walk on the moon.

It's quite sad to think that in another 30 years there may not be anyone alive who's been to the moon

Well, there's not much to do there.....they made their 5 trips, found out all they needed to know, and it's pointless to keep going back just for the sake of it.

Mars would be the biggie....that's a planet, not a crappy old moon.

I'd not really thought how many in total had walked on the moon. I would have guessed around 9 or so. I imagine 3 people each visit and at least 3 landings. Nothing to base that on, just what I thought.

Sad to know not many around now.

It'd be good to go back 1 more time for better footage.

I met Buzz Aldrin years ago at the Science Museum in Santa Ana.

"How did it feel to go all that way & be the SECOND person to walk in The Moon??"
"Oh...it wasn't a big deal - part of the job. I knew for months ahead of time "...etc.

"Did you ever think you'd spend the rest of your life signing autographs for $30 a pop??"
"Fcuk you, sonny.....I made over a million bucks last year doing this sh!t....how much did YOU make?? Get this guy out of here!!"

Lolz...!!

It was a big lie to scare the Russians.

Chinese were suppose to send up a rocket to capture pictures of the landing site and to take that all important picture of the US Flag, many years ago. Chinese never sent that rocket up, instead became wealthy and built lovely cities...coincidence?!
