NASA HONORS APOLLO ASTRONAUT SCOTT CARPENTER


Apollo astronaut???



I remember vaguely reading a book written IIRC Kris Kraft, where he essentially ripped Scott a new A-hole over his performance in his Mercury mission. Seemed that Scott spent too much time figuring out the source of the space fireflies (ice crystals from urine dumps) and not pay enough attention to instrumentation used in flying the spacecraft. I don't think Scott ever flew again.
