#Apollo12 launched #OTD November 14, 1969 and was struck by lightening during ascent. Houston & the capsule lost all flight data but flight engineer John Aaron recognized the problem and recommended a fix, saving the mission.

#MathSky #physics #astronomy A thousand years from now, if man is still around, all the wars and politics of today will be footnotes of history. But our descendants, assuming they're not living in caves again, will remember this as the time man really started to learn about planets like Saturn.

I'm so sorry to report some very sad news...
Another astronaut hero has left us, - Ken Mattingly, who flew to the moon on #Apollo16, has died at 87 - He piloted Apollo 16 and commanded the shuttle. But he may be best known for the mission he didn't fly: the ill-fated Apollo 13.
