This photo of the week is in honor of Story Musgrave's 70th birthday. Did he really make six spaceflights, or was it just one flight by six identical Musgraves? This is the STS-44 crew leaving the O&C Building at KSC to participate in the terminal countdown demonstration test on November 1, 1991. Ed Hengeveld |

He doesn't look 70 for the simple reason he was 56, in 1991. :-)

Very funny indeed! A group of us were at the VIP site for the STS-44 night launch...simply the most incredible sight I have ever seen in my life. I happen to have one of my ISP's of the 44 crew on ebay right now...have a look... [This message has been edited by collectSPACE Admin (edited August 19, 2005).] |
