Sixty years ago my folks allowed me to stay home from school so I could watch live television coverage of Alan Shepard riding a Redstone rocket in his Freedom 7 Mercury space capsule to become the first American in space.
It was May 5, 1961
That was the beginning of a long and enduring love affair with America's space program - manned and unmanned.
This country’s accomplishments in space travel continue to grab me.
This short video is some good stuff. It continues to be The Right Stuff
