Was it 1972 when the last man stood on the moon? That's 45 years ago!  :o

Remember the optimism of moon bases and space stations and pushing on to Mars?

Somebody better get the finger out and invent warp drive pretty damned soon.

My dear Sis, early this morning.  :(.......One of the kindest & sweetest people you could ever hope to meet.

Part of me is very sad.....The other part is pleased for her...as she's been fighting Motor Neuron disease for such a long time.

RIP, Sis.

Phil.
