Sorry for the OT, but this is an unusual situation.
John Glenn died this morning.
First US orbital astronaut. Last survivor of the "Mercury Seven". As of today, there is no-one left who knows what it's like to ride a Mercury capsule into space, or ride an Atlas rocket. No-one who can relate that experience.
