I just got off the phone tslking to Stan Lebar's widow. I am still teary-eyed. What an amazing man and what an amazing woman. Thank you for spending so much time and effort to document his work.

And sadly, after 42 years and 1 day after their greatest achievement, NASA's manned space exploration is cancelled.... Its not canceled, just paused. There was a 6 year gap after the last Apollo flight before the Shuttle flew. There's a good chance the MPCV will fly by 2015 and unlike the shuttle it is designed for exploration missions. Isn't Dragon supposed to go to ISS this year?

Isn't Dragon supposed to go to ISS this year? On current plans, an unmanned flight to the ISS is scheduled for November. A manned version, however, could be several years away.
