Where was NASA on this one?

Okay, so apparently 79 year old space-age star Buzz Aldrin is collaborating with the likes of Snoop, Talib, Soulja and Jones.




Alright, alright, we all know Funny Or Die is the product of Will Ferrell, Adam McKay and Chris Henchy getting stoned on social media and getting down with the get down of viral vids so you guys can take a breather. No one is going to be stormin' up on Power 106 about space travel anytime soon but Buzz Aldrin, only the second man to ever walk on the moon, is intent on spreading science love to kids everywhere. Obviously, he's hip to technology (he walked on the freakin' moon, I'm sure he knows about Twitter and shit) and knows the best way to win the hearts of millions of kids on summer break and billions of twenty somethings sitting at their desk job wasting away their glory days in artificial lighting is to make them laugh via the internets.

"I want kids interested in space. It's their future," says Aldrin.
Snoop jumped on the project "because (Aldrin) pushes kids to achieve their dreams."

But it's not all LOLZ people, you can purchase the single on ITunes to help benefit three of Aldrin's charities, including his ShareSpace Foundation which premotes education and exploration of space.

Although, I have to be honest.
This did not make me go run and read about space.
Instead, I watched a three year old explain Star Wars.
