    This man is one of the few people who have truly done something GREAT for humanity in modern times. An inspiration and an icon, R.I.P.

    In their exploration, they stirred the people of the world to feel as one; in his death, he binds more tightly the brotherhood of man.

    In ancient days, men looked at stars and saw their heroes in the constellations. In modern times, we do much the same, but our heroes are epic men of flesh and blood.

    Others will follow, and surely find their way home. Man’s search will not be denied. But he was the first, and he will remain the foremost in our hearts.

    For every human being who looks up at the moon in the nights to come will know that there is some corner of another world that is forever mankind."
    Very apt indeed. I am actually legitimately sad, but he will be remembered.

    I said I didn't know without looking it up, and John Glen "seemed" right somehow.
