"Proud to host one of the “founding fathers” of space exploration Buzz Aldrin with friends Etienne Schneider at my house" said US Ambassador Randy Evans via Twitter. "50 years after the first walk on the moon we keep our eyes on the stars together", he continued.
Aldrin, a native of New Jersey, is in Luxembourg to take part in celebrations planned for the 243rd American independence day and, of course, the 50th anniversary of the moon landing.
