Astronaut Buzz Aldrin Coming To Trinidad
I was so excited when I heard the news Mr. Aldrin is coming to Trinidad, it would be nice to hear his stories about the moon landing. I hope he visits several schools because I think it would help tremendously to inspire the children of our nation.
SCI-FI geeks, you may get lucky this year.
Buzz Aldrin, the second person to walk on the Moon, is expected to land in this country before the end of the year with two other astronauts.
Ramesh Lutchmedial, Director General of Civil Aviation at the Trinidad and Tobago Civil Aviation Authority, mentioned the arrival of the three astronauts as he delivered the welcome address during a ceremony held at the Airport Authority's Executive Jet Centre, Piarco International Airport, Friday.
The ceremony was held to mark the donation of a Boeing 727 aircraft to the Trinidad and Tobago Civil aviation Authority by air courier services company, FedEx.
Lutchmedial said the plane came as a gift for the 50th anniversary of the Civil Aviation Authority Aviation Training Centre.
