The Moon

Reminder: @elonmusk might have destroyed the value of Twitter, and lit a pile of money on fire, but I still love you all.

Reminder: @elonmusk doesn’t own me and that makes him sad

Now we know why people keep leaving @elonmusk

The moon is 3.6 years old today according to @themoon app. That gives me a certain sense of security in all of this silence. Solice: whole.

Looking back, landing on the moon wasn’t just our job, it was a historic opportunity to prove to the world America’s can-do spirit. I’m proud to serve the country that gave me this historic opportunity. Today belongs to you. We must hold the memory of #Apollo11 close. #Apollo50th

Armstrong: "Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed." #Apollo11 #Apollo50

Thanks for celebrating #Apollo50 with me, @GoogleDoodles! For more behind the scenes, go to bit.ly/2XUAiil #GoogleDoodle

You know the name Neil Armstrong, but what about Poppy Northcutt or Hazel Fellows? For #Apollo50, learn about the women who played essential roles in building the Apollo program: s.si.edu/2NYb17d #BecauseOfHerStory

50 years ago today, Neil Armstrong, Mike Collins and I launched into space on a mission of enormous importance. God bless the 400,000 Americans who helped us get to the moon and back. Together, we Americans can do anything! Never forget July 16, 1969! #Apollo50

I see Stars...

I blot our your sun, Earthlings

My favorite expression is 'outward bound.' To me it epitomizes the human spirit - to go, to see, to understand. #MondayMotivation #MarsMotivation @60Mins

How the days fly by....

Old photo album:

Fifty years ago today, I was in a command module simulator during a practice rendezvous and docking maneuver with the lunar module. #Apollo50 📷: @NASA

When we made it to the Moon it was uncharted territory – literally! Our 21-day quarantine was a necessary precaution at the time...we didn’t know if there were any microorganisms on the Moon #spacebugs

On this #FathersDay, I remember Dad visiting me at summer camp during WWII. Dads - I hope you continue to receive kindness from your children. For me, sadly, I hope better days will come.

How sweet! The last full Moon before the June solstice goes by Strawberry, Rose, or Honey Moon. These refer to what you can eat/grow this time of year, not a rosy color. #WinterIsComing in the southern hemisphere so enjoy a Long Night’s or Cold Moon. go.nasa.gov/2ImvI8e
