I know I'm old fashioned, influenced by growing up in the 1960s, but astronauts are still heroes in my book. They sat on top of those guided slowly released bombs, known as rockets, and got the job done. It's a great shame that the courage they showed has not been matched by effort and determination since that time to pursue exploration. I believe in interviews these guys express this view as well.

As a child I grew up around relatives at the cape...they were all my heros
