LEGAL NOTE: Generally ALL of the photos on this site are by NASA and/or NASA photographers save for photos taken by myself (which would be annotated as having been taken by me, Emily C.). I take no picture credit for any photos having been taken by NASA and NASA photographers, for obvious reasons. Thank you.

Attention lazy dads: even the first man on the moon had to change diapers now and then. At least nobody’s taking your picture when you do it.

Awww man. Neil smiling at his baby. I think there is a speck of dust in my eye. Just dust. 
I still miss the heck out of him. 
    I’m thrilled to pay tribute to Sally because her dedication and superb talent cemented the value of women’s contributions in space and in science, smoothing the path for all women to achieve success. Sally showed the world what was possible, opening the eyes of millions of women and men to what could be. Her achievements in space inspired a generation of young women, and her achievements in STEM education will pass that legacy of inspiration on to future generations.

I don’t know why they made this record label.There was no real record*. I don’t know why they did a lot of the things they did in 1965. But this happened, and here it is.
*(I’m actually really disappointed that there was no record. It would have pleased me to know that somewhere out there existed an LP with John on guitar and the pair of them singing an ode to the Molly Brown. It would almost certainly have been terrible and excellent.)

Oh my god…I bet this was just cusses and laughing and farting
