collectSPACE Don Lind, shuttle astronaut whose moon mission was canceled, dies at 92Don Lind, a former NASA astronaut who helped plan humanity's first moonwalk before launching on the space shuttle, has died at the age of 92. Lind's death on Tuesday (Aug. 30) was first reported by the Herald Journal in Logan, Utah. "Don is as close to the true 'Renaissance Man' — Leonardo da Vinci's ideal of a man who could do everything and do it well — as exists in our day and age," his family wrote in an obituary issued on Friday (Sep. 2).  |

I got to meet him and his wife when they had a grand opening for a new Mormon church that was built next door to my parents house in 1988. A very nice family I got to talk to both of them for awhile after his presentation on his 51-B Spacelab 3 flight. His daughter designed the crew patch. |
