Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong were not close personal friends, but they did develop a close and respectful working relationship on the Apollo 11 mission. Armstrong was, in fact, given the opportunity to replace Aldrin because some had found him difficult to work with, but Armstrong stuck with Aldrin. Mike Collins described the relationship of the Apollo 11 crew as “amiable strangers.”
