Aldrin, NUMB3RS, and Sharespace

Tonight’s episode of the CBS TV series “NUMB3RS” will feature a guest appearance by Apollo 11 astronaut Buzz Aldrin, playing himself (of course), according to a press release issued by Aldrin’s ShareSpace Foundation, a personal spaceflight advocacy organization. That release, as well as companion release, indicates that Aldrin’s appearance is timed with the relaunch of the ShareSpace web site, although as of this writing the ShareSpace site is just a placeholder with the message “our full site is coming soon!” The new ShareSpace site, according to that placeholder, will be “a clearinghouse of resources that will help people of all ages to enjoy, prepare for and literally fly into space.”
