That was worth the wait!
From my Mom:
Wow! I am VERY IMPRESSED, you ROCKET SCIENTISTS! You even brought your astronauts back safely! NASA often can’t do that.
And Great Timing!
Did you know this week is the 50th anniversary of the first American orbit of the earth? Yesterday on TV they were trotting out astronaut John Glenn, now in his 90s, to talk about his famous trip in Friendship 7, on February 20, 1962.
You really should show this video to Gavin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLH14k5Vszg
In 1969, 7.5 years later, Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon while Robert, Bruce, and I, and millions of others, watched on TV in El Cerrito, CA.
