Exploring The Surface Of The Moon
Around twenty minutes after leaving Eagle, Aldrin walked down the small ladder and stepped out onto the surface of the moon. By then, Armstrong was done setting up the TV camera to share the view with millions of people on earth. It allowed everyone else to join them on this amazing journey. The pair of astronauts started to explore the landscape around them and spent two and a half hours there before they went back to the lunar module. At least, that is the official version of the story as we know it.

Armstrong and Aldrin went on to spend almost 22 hours on the moon’s surface before they left. When they were outside Eagle, the pair of astronauts took a lot of amazing photos. We are sure that you have seen at least some of them in the past. The people who say that they did not really make it to the moon have pointed out alleged anomalies in these photos to support their claims that the landing was fake.
