Buzz Aldrin had the right idea on how to deal with crazy people accusing him of lying about going to the moon. Sure, you can soberly and carefully lay out the mountains of evidence proving that they’re completely wrong, but it’s far more efficient to give them a solid bonk on the hooter and send them sprawling onto the sidewalk.
But, sadly, modern PR concerns mean today’s astronauts can’t deal quite the same firm response. This was shown in a video uploaded by “PatriotTakes” on X on May 20, showing the Artemis II crew, Commander Reid Wiseman, Pilot Victor Glover, Mission Specialist Christina Koch, and Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen being accosted by some crazy person in a hallway on Capitol Hill.
