Nice find. "The six-person flight crew consisted of Henry W. Hartsfield Jr., commander, making his second Shuttle mission; pilot Michael L. Coats; three mission specialists: -- Judith A. Resnik, Richard M. Mullane and Steven A. Hawley; and a payload specialist, Charles D. Walker, an employee of the McDonnell Douglas Corp. Walker was the first commercially-sponsored payload specialist to fly aboard the Shuttle." Regards, -Bouncer31-
Just out of curiousity, Did Wilbur and Orville have thousands of people from the top 1% of university graduates backing them? How bout that Lindbergh fella? My point isn't that anyone can do it, my point is taht neither of these groups had huge backing of the kind you're referring to, and they both did something for the first time. If his math is right, and he built it right, there's no reason why it shouldn't work. Regards, -Bouncer31-
