I'm old enough to have been alive and watched on our black and white TV as man took his first steps on the moon.

We all owe a huge debt to the brave men and women of the space programs.

It's a shame that we seem to be moving away from this sort of exploration.

About the only thing I remember from the MSI in Chicago other than U-505 is the NASA exhibit. They had Lovell's Apollo 8 command module there.

He is one of my heroes.
