Join Mercury 7 astronaut Scott Carpenter in the Big Apple for a posh celebration in honor of the
50th Anniversary of his flight, Aurora 7! This extraordinary opportunity includes two days of celebrity-worthy activities with Carpenter, his fellow astronauts, friends and family.
The party begins Wednesday, May 23, when the renowned Players Club in Gramercy Park shuts down for a private dinner only for Carpenter and his guests. Founded in 1888 by Shakespearean actor Edwin Booth, the members-only Players Club is an exclusive townhouse draped in rich furnishings, brilliant stained glass and breathtaking canvases. Take in the establishment's rich history while you enjoy an intimate dinner with exquisite cuisine and luscious libations alongside American legends.
After an evening recounting the amazing tale of the Mercury launch, walk in the steps of history on the flight deck of the Aurora 7 recovery ship, USS Intrepid, in a ceremony featuring Carpenter and ship crew members from that historical day!
