As American's celebrate the 40th anniversary of the moon landing, one of those astronauts says it's time for a new space race.
Buzz Aldrin, a Montclair native and the second man to set foot on the moon, is pushing for NASA to set its sights on a Mars landing. The Russians are currently beating the United States in the race to Mars, he adds.
"I believe that Russia is very intent," says Aldrin.
