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.
