Who was the second man to walk on the moon?

Ahh the moon.  Made of pure swiss cheese and populated completely by gnomes.  When the Soviets aren't invading it.

Wait, what?

Above:  Not really under Soviet control...we think.

Well, not that the goofy stuff is out of the way, let's get on with the question of the day, this one off of our U.S. History game.   Who was the 2nd man to walk on the moon?  Neil Armstrong, Gus Grissom, Pete Conrad or Buzz Aldrin?


Not Neil Armstrong:  He was the first man to walk on the moon.  Interestingly enough, Armstrong actually botched his preplanned quote when he first stepped on the moon.  What he said was, "One strong step for man, one giant leap for mankind."  What he meant to say was, "One strong step for a man, one giant leap for mankind."  He walked on the moon.  We'll forgive him.

It wasn't Gus Grissom: One of the original Mercury astronauts, Grissom was the 2nd man to fly in space and the 1st to fly in space twice - Grissom, however, was tragically killed when the Apollo 1 caught fire during a routine test.

It wasn't Pete Conrad either, though that's close - Conrad was the third man to walk on the moon.  

The correct answer is Buzz Aldrin.  This was apparently due to the physical positioning of Aldrin in the spacecraft, as well as NASA's desire to have the first man on the moon be a civilian.
