December 8, 20205 yr My dad is 72 and grew up in the midst of the space race...he's always nerded out reading about aeronautics and space exploration. He has a dog-eared copy of Yeager's autobiography 'Yeager' on his bookshelf that I'll bet he's read a dozen times, and I guess a little of that rubbed off on me. I watched The Right Stuff for about the 7th or 8th time about a month ago...couldn't help but wonder how much longer Chuck would be with us.
