I was 13 when Sputnik was launched and helped set the arc of my life. By mid 1966 I was a 21 year old aerospace engineer working on the Gemini Project when Buzz Aldrin stopped by my desk to question me about a design I was working on. American Moonshot is a great read and a wonderful look behind the scenes at the politics of the day. God bless President Kennedy and all the Astronaughts and fellow workers that helped Americca win the space race.
