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.

Fifty years ago today, John Glenn became the first American to orbit the earth. Hats off one of the most admirable living patriots.

Glenn is also the oldest person ever to fly into space after flying aboard on Discovery STS-95. He is the only man to have flown in both the Mercury program and the Shuttle program.

Hello, friends who follow my personal blog and not my space blog!

I am reblogging this because IT IS IMPORTANT TO ME.

HAPPY 50TH ORBITAL ANNIVERSARY TO JOHN GLENN. AND AMERICA.
