He survived a lot of close calls. He ejected in Korea, Gemini 8 spinning, the LLRV crash. And then the moon mission. He was exceptional under pressure. David Scott was flying with him on Gemini and gave kudos in his autobiography.
- witx 3y agoYes! People usually only know him for the moon landing, but those who know a bit more are well aware of this (and and many others) man's courage and life before that. He went through so many life-ending events and still persevered. Gemini 8 alone is very very scary to think about
