A Prius just tried to race me at the light...
I totally had it for the first 100 meters, but I can only walk so fast.
Edward H. White IIDied 27 Jan 1967 at age 36 (born 14 Nov 1930).First U.S. astronaut to walk in space. With James A. McDivitt he manned the four-day orbital flight of Gemini 4, launched on 3 Jun 1965. During the third orbit White emerged from the spacecraft, floated in space for about 20 minutes, and became the first person to propel himself in space with a maneuvering unit. Two years later, White was one of the three-man crew of Apollo 1 who in 1967 were the first casualties of the U.S. space program, killed during a flight simulation (the others were Virgil I. Grissom and Roger B. Chaffee). |
