How many remember the air hose laying across the pavement that rang a bell when you drove over it at full service stations?
I know I can't be the only one here who used to jump up and down on it as a kid trying to make the bell ring.

Three months before NASA launched the first American astronaut into space in 1961, they sent a chimpanzee named Ham on a pioneering mission. Fortunately, his mission was successful. Trained to pull levers in response to sounds and lights, Ham performed his tasks admirably in space—moving only slightly slower than he had on Earth.

That pic of the Stuckey's Pecan Log brought back some memories. Every time we took a road trip as a kid, I would be on the lookout for a Stuckey's and plead with my parents to stop and get a pecan log-------sometimes they did, sometimes they just drove past

That was Scott Crossfield's emergency landing after an inflight engine fire. This happened a year before Neil joined the program.
Jack Mackay had a landing gear failure which resulted in substantial damage to the vehicle.
