        Thank you for remembering. My Mom was born in Ohio, and I grew up inspired by #JohnGlenn & the entire space program. It showed me my government could do great things even in very challenging political times. @NASAglenn @NASAhistory I played inside my own Mercury capsule too!pic.twitter.com/IJ1R0wiGm6

        In 1962 Americans were orbiting the Earth, in 2018 they're on the internet bitching about "libruls"

        What an amazing experience to have met Senator & Mrs. Glenn while I was a young Marine. He was one of my childhood hero’s. Godspeed John Glenn

        I was 11. I still remember every moment and I still weep with patriotic pride and admiration whenever I see it. Those were the days of miracle and wonder.
