Sadly, by the time the next man walks on the moon (or Mars for that matter), it seems increasingly unlikely that any of the original moonwalkers will be around to witness it. I hope I'm wrong.RIP Dr. Mitchell |

Very sad news I had the honour of meeting Ed once. I did correspond with him — A gentleman — Godspeed the crew of Apollo 14. Deepest sympathy to Ed's family. RIP. |

.I had the honour of meeting him twice: once in Bruges, Belgium in 2007 and once in Noordwijk / NL some years ago. A very nice and humble man. |

I cannot believe that Edgar Mitchell has passed, thus the crew of Apollo 14 is no more; may he rest in peace for now until Jesus returns... |
