do you think god stays in heaven because he, too, lives in fear of what he’s created?

The first two men to walk on the moon were named Niel and Edwin. The next two were named Charles and Alan.

But if you asked most people to name the first person on the moon they’d say “Buzz Armstrong”

And they would be wrong. Niel Armstrong didn’t seem to carry a nickname; he was an aviator in the US Navy, who usually end up with callsigns, but I’m struggling to find what his was. Google “assistant” is hallucinating; it’s saying that Neil Armstrong’s navy callsign was “WARL” and links to a Wikipedia page about the oceanographic research ship RV Neil Armstrong(AGOR-27) whose maritime radio callsign is WARL. I know of no personal nickname or callsign of his.
Aldrin, on the other hand…I’m just now learning this. I assumed he got the nickname Buzz as a USAF pilot callsign, but no. His sister Faye mispronounced “brother” as “buzzer” which was shortened to “Buzz.” And he legally changed his name to “Buzz Aldrin” in 1988. It was still a nickname during the Apollo program.

Yes, most people are wrong about a lot of things. But the zeitgeist of “Buzz” and “Armstrong” on the moon likely informed the naming conventions of fictional characters.
Edwin Eugene Aldrin Jr. is much more commonly known as Buzz Aldrin, and Buzz Lightyear is named after him.
Obviously the answer to buddy’s question is “whoever was the second guy on the moon” though.

Idk how but you clearly doctored the results. The output has more energy in the form of extra punctuation than the input does. Something else was done other than a simple reflection. Please provide precise method of backwarding used.

I wonder what Buzz Lightyear would be called if the first two men in the moon were named Nick Adams and John Abbott or something normal.
ETA: And if they different names, would we have gotten “Blast Hardcheese?”

They were specifically selected to send secret messages to the aliens using their names.
And that message was…
I believe it was “!su evas ,su pleh ,namdam a si poolF“

But Neil Armstrongs backwards is “Sgnorts Mr Alien”.
It’s not merely “backwards” when you apply several arbitrary rules to get the results you want.
Thanks, Sheldon
Why so complicated? Neil A. = Alien
Because this is not about being easy, it’s about being funny
-Jesus Christ
It’s also an anagram for “O girl, transmen!”
