This was quite an event and was attended by much of Neil Armstrong's family as well. I was impressed with how friendly and accessible Harrison Schmitt and Al Wordon were during the breaks and throughout the day, especially with the students, including my son. While Michael Collins was a delight to hear talk at the early morning session, unfortunately he disappeared for the rest of the day. Still, this day-long event was fantastic!
