NASA Salutes Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022)

NASA Salutes Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022)
"Queen Elizabeth II's reign (1952-2022) spanned all of spaceflight, predating both Sputnik and Explorer 1."
"As we join the planet in marking her passing, we are moved by the curiosity Her Royal Highness showed our explorers over the years."

NASA's Apollo 11 astronauts, Neil A. Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Edwin E. “Buzz” Aldrin, have an audience in London’s Buckingham Palace with Queen Elizabeth II in 1969.
