I recently read the book Moondust, by Andrew Smith.

It tracks the whereabouts of the nine surviving moonwalkers - heroes of the late 60s and early 70s.

A few days later I found myself watching The Goonies and wondering what happened to those "heroes" of the 80s.

Here is some of what I discovered, thanks largely due to the research of others with even more time on their hands than me! Some useful links are at the bottom of the page.
