Christian Astronauts ping. Very good read.

I wonder if the major media will carry this?

Thanks for the post. A good book to read is Astronaut Jim Irwin's "To Rule the Night".

Good post. I once read a fascinating anecdote about Neil Armstrong. Apparently one of the problems some of these astronauts faced was that when they returned to "normal" life they had to cope with the realization that nothing they ever did could possibly match what they had done in space.

Armstrong once visited the Holy Land as a tourist, and he later said that walking on the ground where Jesus Christ once walked was a more awesome experience than walking on the moon.

I'm humbled by the faith this man held. Surely, he is an example for all of us who call Jesus, Lord.

Thank you, truthandlife, for posting this. I had goose bumps as I read it. God will use this for HIS glory, I know. I pasted the picture of the Columbia going through the gates of heaven on my office door. God is doing something in the Spirit in our nation and this could very well be part of it. Who knows. God bless all of their families and friends in this difficult time in their lives. And God bless YOU for posting this. Maryxxx

Two remarkable men. Can you think of a better pair for anyone lost and facing death to be with? Who knows? Maybe their work wasn't done when they launched and SEVEN Christians died together.
