During all of the anniversary brass and pomp for the moon landing, when everyone is (rightly) celebrating the bravery of Armstrong and Aldrin, let's take a moment to remember the man who - to me - performed one of the bravest acts in the history of the human race: Michael Collins. For a full day, he circled in the Lunar Orbiter, and when he passed out of radio contact, became the most solitary man.
