OZCUBAN Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 "One Small Step" Hi All A big congrats to NASA on their 40th Anniversary of Mans First step on the Moon. I wonder what cigars were smoked back then to celebrate? The next step Mars? Lets also remember the crew of apollo 1 Remembering Apollo 1 On January 27, 1967, Apollo 1's crew--Virgil I. "Gus" Grissom, Edward H. White II and Roger B. Chaffee--was killed when a fire erupted in their capsule during testing. Apollo 1 was originally designated AS-204 but following the fire, the astronauts' widows requested that the mission be remembered as Apollo 1 and following missions would be numbered subsequent to the flight that never made it into space. These guys paved the way for others to follow and paid the ultimate price they will not be forgotten As a foot note I think the name apollo would make a really good name for a line of Cigars Cheers Oz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
