Buzz Aldrin Wants Humans On Mars By 2040

Buzz Aldrin has confirmed he is developing "a master plan" for colonising Mars within the next 25 years. The 85-year-old, who was the second man to walk on the moon during the first manned mission in 1969, is becoming a research professor of aeronautics at the Florida Institute of Technology. He wants a Mars settlement to be achieved by 2039, as it would mark 70 years since the Apollo 11 moon landing.
