Neil Armstrong death

[golden optimist]

Ed may be the true "Rocket scientist" But I worked on the fix for Apollo 13. I worked at Beech Aircraft in Boulder on the new design for Apollo 14-16.

Here’s what I worked on for Apollo 14-`16. I worked on the fix for Apollo 13.

Stuff I touched landed on the moon. Get me drunk enough around a campfire and I'll tell you the story.

That is impressive!

My Geology Prof was connected with the Moon landings also.
He even got to handle some Moon rocks.
He had some great stories too.

Now among the cosmos you pioneered, God bless you Neil Armstrong,
you're a GREAT American and a unique man of history.

My neighbor growing up was Glenn Lunney, he was 1 of 3 flight directors of Apollo 13,along with Krance and Craft and was portrayed in the movie , actually used the phrase " failure is not an option" . Several weeks after, our hometown had a hero's welcome for Mr Lunney where the local paper proclaimed the headline "LUNNEY DAY IN OLD FORGE" Nasa gave him a small piece of moon rock which I had the chance to hold many years ago.
