When Buzz Aldrin first took his trips around the Earth how long did it take for one full rotation around the Earth?
Hello Sharkey,
This is a teeny nitpick…nobody *rotated* around the Earth, they orbited around the Earth. To rotate implies that something is spinning on its axis (like a top), but to orbit or revolve means that one thing is moving around another object, like the Moon and satellites do to the Earth.
As somebody else correctly pointed out, it takes about 90 minutes to completely revolve around the Earth in low orbit. You should give that person Best Answer…just remember what I said, okay? Good luck to you!

Hi Sharkey…
If you’re thinking about an orbital period, it took him (along with Michael Collins and Neil Armstrong) about 90 minutes to complete one orbit.
I wonder how long it might take him on foot…?
Peace,
Bobby
