We have Mercury, Gemini. and Apollo Blvd's of the 3 only mercury is a major street. And we have Commander Sheppard Blvd. And 6 bridges named for the other 6 mercury astronauts. Sadly most people have no clue who these roads or nbamed for or why Mercury Blvd is named such. Infact some group several years ago tried to have Mercury Blvd renamed Martin Luther King Blvd. Thankfully the idea didnt happen Project Mercury is part of the history of Hampton VA abnd so are the original 7 astronauts.carmelo quote:[B]You can't speed on that street!B]Neither in a 1963 Corvette ? carmelo dtempleHi Carmelo. Where did you find the photo of Cooper getting into the Corvette? Do you have any other photos of astronauts with Corvettes? I have seen the photo of the Apollo 12 crew with their gold Corvettes and the Apollo 15 crew with their red, white, and blue Corvettes.Duke Of URL quote:Originally posted by carmelo: Neither in a 1963 Corvette ?
