Tonight Is The Full Moon And I Am So Fascinated By The Moon Right Now.

*ran aggressively to print*

It has been said that if Astronaut Fashions was an actual magazine, John Young would be the cover boy. There is the chance that I may have taken this idea too literally.

missionspecialist, you are literally a hero.

We go to print tomorrow.

I still can’t stop thinking about this picture

“It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put my thumb up and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn’t feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.” -Neil Armstrong (1930-2012)

Portrait of Myself By Robert Francis Kennedy

“I am thirteen years old, and about five feet two inches tall, I have got a lot of freckles. I have Hazel eyes, and blond hair which is plenty hard to keep down because I have so many licks, and so much of it. I am not very fat, but fat enough. I weigh about one hundred pounds. I take about five and a half shoe. I have a pretty good character on the whole, but my temper is not too good. I am not jealous of anyone, I have got a very loud voice, and talk a lot, but sometimes my talk is not very interesting. I have quite good tastes for food, but there is a lot of things I don’t like at all for instence [sic] cabbage, fish pie, Brussels sprouts, colif flower [sic], and pears. I love almost everything, cholcet [sic]. I like the cinema very much, and go very often. I go to the theatre once and a while, and like it quite well. I like football, but I like American football much better. I don’t like cricket very much I like baseball a lot. Going swimming is one of my favorite sports. I like skiing one of the best, and I think I am the best at this sport out of all the thing I do. I can’t dive very well, but like it to a cirten [sic] exstant [sic]. I think this is a portrait of my self.”

I've kept these for quite a while 'cause I tend to cry over them quite frequently and other special photos like the high quality photo I have of my smiley lovely boy at Orlando High school in 1948. My loveeeee 💕

Back during the Charlie Sheen meltdown days, the NASA tumblr fandom posted a bunch of “NASA Sheenisms,” aka Charlie Sheen quotes superimposed upon astronaut photos. This was one of my contributions.

April 4, 1968 | Dr. King used to say you have to be maladjusted to the problems, to the issues that you see around us. Robert Kennedy was maladjusted. Martin Luther King, Jr. was maladjusted. They had the ability to get in the way. Today we’re too quiet, we’re too silent. We need to find a way to push and pull, and disturb the sense of false peace, and the sense of false order that we have in our society today. I was there standing nearby when Robert Kennedy spoke those words. They were powerful then, and they’re still powerful today. No one had been able to capture the essence of what was happening in America like him. What he said was very much in keeping with the very philosophy and the discipline and nonviolence that was preached and taught by Martin Luther King, Jr. No one in America today is speaking the way Robert Kennedy spoke then. – Rep. John Lewis
