....I need to read that one eventually.

Do Frank Poole and David Bowman qualify?


....I've really been handwringing about this one, and right now I have

perspective. "2001" was far beyond what really happened, and in
retrospect far above what we really could have achieved had we gone
that route, at least within that time frame.

Lt. Col. Joseph Faulk, U.S. Marines, from Jeff Sutton's "Apollo at Go".

The astronauts in Jacob Hay & John M.Keshishian's "Death Of A Cosmonaut"
(I must buy a copy !)


....Names and they should be added, natch. Ditto for _The Pilgrim
Project_

John Mason and Larry Carter from Wernher von Braun's "First Men to the
Moon" (a bit obscure, but I found it on Saturday! My edition doesn't
have these pictures, though http://sun3.lib.uci.edu/~jsisson/fmtm.htm)


....Ditto.
