Second American to orbit the planet(May,'62) has passed away.

Makes me think again of the long time that has passed since we were on the cusp of a space revolution and how far we've fallen since then.

RIP.

[*]His piloting of Friendship7 when the re-entry package failed is still considered as one of the finest moments in the Mercury program.
[*]Only John Glen remains from the Mercury program.

Yeah, instead of suporting and creating civil wars in africa/middle east we should focus more os space program again. Lets do more missions to moon and ultimately mars.

May he rest in peace but never to hope that space programs will rest in peace. Carpenter will not be forgotten.
