Apollo Astronauts Went Through Customs After Returning From Moon. Buzz Aldrin Shares Pic Of Form 

Apollo Astronauts Went Through Customs After Returning From Moon. Buzz Aldrin Shares Pic Of Form

The image of the form shared by the astronaut has gone viral on social media.

On July 20, 1969, the world watched with bated breath as man set foot on the Moon. And one would think that the men who created such history would have received a thumping welcome back on Earth. This they did, but only after having cleared a customs form once they landed home. And Internet users heard this straight from the horse's mouth when astronaut Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin shared an image of the customs form that he and the crew had to fill when they landed. Buzz Aldrin was the second man to walk on the Moon and was accompanied by Neil Armstrong -- the first man to walk on the Moon -- on the Apollo 11 lunar module, Eagle. Imagine spending 8 days in space, including nearly 22 hours on the Moon and returning home to Earth only to have to go through customs! ???? #Apollo11pic.twitter.com/FvtSVwSD1f "Any other conditions on board that may lead to the spread of disease? TO BE DETERMINED"!!!The moon men might have given the crew a moon cold along with moon cheese Fun fact:there was an actual concern that they may have brought viruses with them so they had to go in quarantine,luckily we now know that life is almost impossible on the moon pic.twitter.com/wJIzF0uce8 Dr. Aldrin,My father was an aeronautical engineer during the Apollo program. Here's his certificate for Apollo 11.Our family is so proud of it. God bless ???? pic.twitter.com/huWw4BfVLH Some things are more important than history. Namely, paperwork.What would have happened if they denied it? Back into space? "How can we get an autograph from the astronauts?""Guys, I've an idea!" Best destination list of any customs documents. pic.twitter.com/zhhnyPE3Gd Sharing this important bit of trivia with Internet users, Mr Aldrin wrote along with the photo, “Imagine spending eight days in space, including nearly 22 hours on the Moon and returning home to Earth only to have to go through customs. Apollo11.” The photo shows a form titled “general declaration” and is dated July 24, 1969. The owner or operator is listed as National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA) and the document contains details about Mr Armstrong, Mr Aldrin as well as Michael Collins who was aboard the Apollo 11 spaceship, along with their signatures. Under the category of cargo, the form lists “moon rock and moon dust samples” that the team carried with them back to Earth.
