Tomorrow night at 10pmET, Fox News Channel will present a special commemorating the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission, which put a man on the moon. The special “Apollo 11: One Small Step to Our Future,” is hosted by Greta Van Susteren and includes an interview with Buzz Aldrin, Apollo 11′s lunar module pilot and the second man to walk on the moon. Mission commander Neil Armstrong was the first.
