I can’t believe that i let the whole week go without commenting on the 50 year anniversary of the moon landing. It’s amazing to me to think that that was 50 years ago. I remember watching the landing live on our big old color TV. My parents were using and Instamatic camera and trying to use the flash. I remember saying to them that you probably shouldn’t use the flash… And believe it or not the only picture that came out was the one with the flash failed.

It was such a cool moment for us growing up in Houston and knowing so much about the space center. I remember my parents used to invite the astronauts home to our house

I have to say the space program really contributed to my interest in science as it did for a zillion other kids.

We need something like that to inspire people today…

Don’t you think?

Nite all, nite Sam
