Default John Glenn, passes away at 95

In case you haven't heard, we have lost John Glenn.

You'd really have to be my age or older to know what that means.

I watched that 3 orbit mission in kindergarten. I was awestruck and amazed. And I was determined to pursue technology as a living, to be a scientist or engineer. I came close.

And I did get to touch the space program in a small way years later.

Thank you, John Glenn, for the inspiration.
