Aldrin walked down the short ladder and stepped out onto the moon’s surface about twenty minutes after departing Eagle. By that time, Armstrong had finished setting up the TV camera that would broadcast the view to millions of people on the planet. It allowed the rest of the world to join them on this incredible voyage. The astronauts began exploring the terrain surrounding them and stayed for two and a half hours before returning to the lunar module. That is, at least, the official version of the tale as far as we are aware.
