Buzz shared this iconic image of the first moon landing on social media and wrote, "When Neil took this pic of me it was very spontaneous. He said "stop right there" and I turned. You can see the motion of the strap on my suit if you look closely. You can also see Neil and the spacecraft in the reflection of my visor." (Photo: Instagram)
