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.

lightthiscandle: Hamilton, Bermuda, 2/16/62: “Astronaut Virgil Grissom, one of America’s two ‘veteran’ space travelers, uses an earthbound mode of transportation here as John Glenn’s orbital flight was canceled again. Grissom, on duty at a tracking station here, was to greet Glenn if he were brought to Bermuda after the recovery. Glenn’s orbital flight is now scheduled for 2/20.” Changed my mind. This is my new favorite photo. Gus has really been on my mind lately. I’m reading This New Ocean right now.
