Buzz Aldrin is the second man to set foot on the moon during the Apollo 11 spacewalk. Indeed, his partner Neil Armstrong, who died in 2012, first launched a rocket on July 20, 1969. Michael Collins, who was the third crew member, died in April 2021. So Buzz Aldrin is the last survivor of the Apollo 11 mission.
