“As the second man to ever walk on the moon, he is a hugely inspirational figure and that is our aim here this week – to inspire our greatest minds to seek out even more ambitious advancements for the human race,” Sean Kelly MEP said in Brussels today (Tuesday).

The Ireland South MEP is hosting the five-day conference on EU Science: Global Challenges, Global Collaboration this week in association with the Irish Council Presidency.

In welcoming Mr Aldrin to the Parliament, Mr Kelly presented him with a very special gift of a Kerry GAA jersey which the former Astronaut gratefully received.
