Red and Rover by Brian Basset for July 21, 2014

Thanks, guys.

Yes…three Very brave men… ;)

Time to break out the Space Food Sticks!

@Jo Clear (aka; Grasshopper): I used to drink Tang untilo I noticed that the price of Tang went up whenever the price of sugar did. So then I switched to 100% orange juice.

How did Brian insert the tiny white dots (the stars) over a solid black background?

A day late but I’m glad to see the acknowledgement.

I thought Tang was developed for NASA but it was invented in 1957 and chosen to use on flight missions. http://education.ssc.nasa.gov/fft_halloffame.asp

Red and Rover are right, they like more their limonade and water!!

I used to like Tang way back when.

So cool!

Hats Off, Gentlemen!

THANK YOU, BOYS…RED, ROVER & BRIAN. A SALUTE TO YOU, TOO FOR ACKNOWLEDGING THIS HISTORIC MOMENT.LOVE & HUGS TO RED & ROVER, ALWAYS

Hear hear

Right on Brian. The next morning is the perfect time to toast with a breakfast drink. As I recall and is mentioned above by the nurse, the landing and 2 hour walk was at night (western hemisphere time).

We are working on the vehicle to take us back to the moon and or beyond. Count down weeks on facebook at https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.631314333604969.1073741842.129562970446777&type=1 (login not required).

BTW, Brian your “What a Ride it’s Been!” with the Shuttle landing is one of my slideshow desktop photos.http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/imagegallery/image_feature_1911.html

We always have a jar of Tang in the cupboard. It’s even better with a shot of vodka; not for Red, of course…

I always admired those guys, but never more than when I heard them say on a documentary the other day, as they were suited and ready to go, that they only gave themselves a 60% chance of all getting back in one piece. Better-than-even odds, but still a lot of courage. And zero bravado or ego in evidence. One small step, three great examples.

Doesn’t look like Tang in Rover’s bowl.

My daughter likes Tang on a bowl of fresh snow. :o) She was able to fully indulge herself last winter. :oP

I worked at the NASA Apollo tracking site in Hawaii and was on shift just before the landing. I watched the landing at a friend’s house. Covering Apollo missions 7-12 was the best job i ever had.

Ahh…Tang and Space Food Sticks! The memories!

Thank you Brian for a great tribute!

Brian is a classy artist. Very well done.

Mix Tang with instant tea, nutmeg, cinnamon, and ginger and you have a delicious spiced tea. Wish I still had the recipe.

July 20, 1969!!

GREAT ONE, BRIAN! Tang and those times, you OUTDID yourself on this one Sir!

Yep, Tang. The official drink of NASA. ;^)

I loved Tang too & this seems like only yesterday!

THANK YOU BRIAN! An awesome tribute!

Thank you, everyone!
