As a NASA civilian test pilot, Armstrong was ineligible to become one of its astronauts at this time, as selection was restricted to military test pilots. It’s been a major point of contention: In the climactic scene in the movie “After 19 minutes of Armstrong’s testing, Colonel Aldrin joined him outside the craft.The two men got busy setting up another television camera out from the lunar module, planting an American flag into the ground, scooping up soil and rock samples, deploying scientific experiments and hopping and loping about in a demonstration of their lunar agility.

Astronaut Buzz Aldrin, who joined Neil Armstrong in the famous moon walk, tweeted out pictures of the flag on the moon as the movie controversy … And a disservice at a time when our people need reminders of what we can achieve when we work together.
