Description
Buzz Aldrin Signed Large White Spacesuit Color Photo with Added Comment. A 16" x 20" glossy photo of a smiling Aldrin posed in front of a large lunar image. Signed in blue felt tip: "Buzz Aldrin/ 'Contact Light'". The signature is large and bold. Great display piece. Heritage's first offering of a photo signed by him with this added phrase. Excellent.The phrase "Contact Light" was used by Buzz Aldrin to indicate to Armstrong that the Eagle's landing gear had made contact with the lunar surface. This moment was pivotal as it signaled that they were just seconds away from landing on the moon. Aldrin's callout of "Contact Light" was a significant milestone in the mission, confirming that they were on target for a successful landing. By using this phrase at the right moment, Buzz Aldrin contributed to the successful landing of Apollo 11 on the lunar surface, marking a historic moment not only for space exploration but for all of mankind.
