Today we are at the 51st anniversary of the Apollo 1 tragedy. Today, a year after presenting this to this forum, I will explain how Debbie Reynolds is connected to this whole mess. And now, in 2018, we also have the death of John Young, as this Debbie Reynolds connection directly impacted him as well.
Yes, Debbie Reynolds' connection was through her role as Molly Brown in the 1964 movie where she got an Oscar nomination. Gus Grissom caught hell with his Mercury capsule sinking, and so on the first Gemini, which he flew with John Young, he picked 'Molly Brown' as the nickname for their spacecraft.
The fundamental theme of this story is one of an oppressive environment of domination, and whether you will choose to submit to that domination, or instead assert the principles you hold, standing up to those who have power over you.
Please quit posting this sort of hare brained conspiracy, Beautiful
Mind, bull****.
It was perfectly clear one year ago when I first posted about the importance of Debbie Reynolds to Space History that this forum is still a cesspool.
I have lost count of the number of things I have presented here that have been reacted to with violent rejection. It is curious to see how some of the biggest points I have persisted with here from way back in 2001 are spoken of today as though they are common knowledge.
It is not hard for me to imagine a day when the tide has turned on people being able to clearly see things like Apollo 16 having left a racist legacy up on the Moon, or the significance of Debbie Reynolds to NASA astronauts.
With Debbie here, even one year after her death, it is apparent that the initial stages of Shock, Denial and Anger have not been moved through yet.
As always, I remain open to the possibility that I have presented anything in error. But when my words are met with blanket dismissal as though I am being racist, or I am promoting conspiracy theory, then those categorical rejections help me to clearly see exactly where the fault is in this.
