At DriveSavers, we often receive requests for data recovery from grieving family members who don’t know the passcode to their loved one’s device.
DriveSavers Rescues Man on the Moon!
Apollo 11 astronaut, Buzz Aldrin knows computers. A mechanical engineer and fighter pilot before becoming an astronaut, Aldrin was the second man to set foot on the moon, following mission commander Neil Armstrong.
Even with years of experience with computers on earth and in space, nothing could prepare him for the surprise failure of one of his hard drives. A NASA associate of the famous astronaut recommended he contact DriveSavers for data recovery.
Last January, DriveSavers successfully completed a data recovery for Aldrin and his company StarBuzz LLC, retrieving historical NASA video files and images. As a gesture of thanks, he sent us an autographed photo of his famous moonwalk. You can also see this photo in our constantly growing Hall of Fame.
