Celestis, the memorial spaceflight company, has announced that astronaut Bill Pogue will be honored on a launch later this year. Pogue died in March 2014.
Our 7th Earth Orbit mission is scheduled for liftoff in the 4th quarter of 2015 from historic Cape Canaveral, where the American space program began. The family of Skylab astronaut William Pogue, along with families of everyday people who shared William Pogue's passion for space, have chosen to honor their loved ones on this Celestis memorial spaceflight.
