Buzz Aldrin, the second man to walk on the moon, thinks that mankind’s next big objective in space should be to colonize Mars. Speaking at an event at the Science Museum in London, Aldrin projected that by 2040, Earthlings will set foot on the Red Planet, making way for an eventual space colony.
‘To take the step, to take the movement, to take the action to begin to occupy — is there anything bigger that humans could do on Earth than to leave and begin to occupy?’ Aldrin said.”
