Burt Lightner, 78, a project manager for NASA who worked on several ventures into space exploration, died June 8, after coping with lung cancer, the Hampton Road Daily Press reported. He worked for NASA for 36 years, starting in 1959, with contributions toward many early space projects including Trailblazer (1964), Lunar Orbiter (1967) and Viking Mars (1976) projects as well as the ACCESS and LDEF retrieval Shuttle missions. Burt felt fortunate while with NASA to have "worked with so many brilliant and dedicated minds." |
